This is a quicklist of all documented species of Lake Tanganyika. Any underlined links point to the detailed cichlid information for that species. Tanganyika cichlids have always been my favourite tropical fish. I love the variety of shapes, sizes, and personalities that they bring to an aquarium. As I get more information on keeping and breeding cichlids added to the site, I'll link the species names to the appropriate article.
