1. First of all, the cichlids in the three lakes refer not only to one kind of fish, but to all cichlids that grow in the three lakes of East Africa, namely, Lake Malawi, Lake Tanganyika and Lake Victoria. There are more than 200 genera and 2000 species.
Secondly, the individual size of these fish varies from species to species. The body length of some large varieties can reach 60-70cm, while that of ordinary medium-sized varieties is usually between 20-30cm, and that of small varieties is about 10cm.
In addition, how big the fish can grow is also affected by the growth environment. For example, if the water quality and temperature are suitable, the fish will grow faster and bigger.
4. Finally, feeding technology and feed will also have an impact on the growth of fish. Providing adequate nutrition and a good feeding environment can make fish grow better.
