Turkana Jewel Cichlid Hemichromis Exsul 5cm

Overview: The Turkana Jewel Cichlid, scientifically known as Hemichromis Exsul, is a vibrant and captivating freshwater fish that adds a dash of color and liveliness to any aquarium. With its striking red body adorned with jewel-like spots, this species is a favorite among aquarists looking to elevate their tank's visual appeal. However, it's not just their appearance that makes them stand out; their intriguing behavior and social dynamics contribute to a fascinating aquarium experience.

Origin: Native to the waters of Lake Turkana in Kenya, the Turkana Jewel Cichlid thrives in environments that mimic their natural habitat. This species is accustomed to warm, slightly alkaline water conditions and benefits from a setup that includes plenty of hiding spots among rocks and vegetation.

Feeding: As omnivores, Turkana Jewel Cichlids have a varied diet that should include both plant-based foods and protein-rich options. A combination of high-quality cichlid pellets, frozen or live foods such as brine shrimp and bloodworms, and vegetable supplements will ensure their nutritional needs are met, contributing to their vibrant coloration and overall health.

Tank Mates: Choosing the right tank mates for Turkana Jewel Cichlids is crucial due to their territorial nature. Suitable companions include other similarly sized and temperament cichlids, robust species that can hold their own without provoking aggression. It's advisable to avoid small, timid fish that could become targets for bullying or predation.

Aggression: Turkana Jewel Cichlids exhibit a moderate to high level of aggression, especially during breeding times when they become fiercely protective of their territory. An adequately sized aquarium with plenty of hiding spaces can help mitigate aggressive encounters, ensuring a more harmonious tank environment.

Experience Level: Due to their specific care requirements and aggressive tendencies, Turkana Jewel Cichlids are best suited for intermediate to experienced aquarists. Those with an understanding of cichlid behavior and aquarium management will find these fish a rewarding challenge.

Water Parameters: To thrive, Turkana Jewel Cichlids require water temperatures between 75°F and 82°F (24°C to 28°C), with a pH level ranging from 7.0 to 8.0. Regular water changes and careful monitoring of water quality are essential to maintain the health and well-being of these vibrant fish.

Incorporating Turkana Jewel Cichlids into your aquarium brings a dynamic element to your aquatic ecosystem, combining visual beauty with engaging behavior. With the right care and companions, these jewels of the aquarium world will shine brightly in their aquatic domain.

Cute, Small, but pack the perfect Glitter Punch!
Color: Sparkling Pink
Amazing! I bought the Iridescent shade. It's a small bottle but for the price & how long the product will last, it's totally a steal! The liquid doesn't have an odir at all, rolls on smooth, not chunky. I tried it on my dark hair it was great. Also quick dry in skin with no rub off after it's COMPLETELY DRY. Rolling extra layers def makes it shinier too.

Amazing!
Color: Mermaid
I bought this for my musical Seussical and for everyday use. I was very impressed by the quality it was so easy to put on and it washed right off. This is the perfect glitter! I tested it on my arm face and hair it and my 2 only problems are that the color is not what it looks in the picture I got the mermaid color thinking it would have more pink but it does not have much pink in it when you put it on it appears more blue and green. The other thing is for those who got this for their hair be ware the glitter will fall off I didn’t get to give it a great chance on my hair but I think it’s not terrible you just need to give it more time to dry than I did or whenever you move you’re head glitter will come off. Overall I think this is an amazing product and I am definitely considering trying other colors.

Pretty and easy to use/wash off
Color: Sparkling Pink
Pretttyyy! It washes off easily when you want it to, so there’s no worries with it feeling “permanent.” It does rub off too but with excessive rubbing. It’s a pretty color that’s holographic-like. We love it for sparkly cheeks!

Great Body Glitter
Color: Sparkling Pink
The main colors of this holo glitter are purple, blue, and silver. It worked perfectly for my outfit, and I honestly had no complaints. When it comes to glitter, there’s nothing you can do to prevent it from getting everywhere, so I don’t hold that against the product at all. It sheds like normal but this literally stayed on after I wore it all day/night at a concert while sweating in 90-100°F heat the whole time; it lasts great. It also washed off super easy with some warm water and soap, which was such a relief. The gel/liquid itself is incredibly easy to apply, as it is pretty thin and dries quickly (maybe 3-5 minutes for total dryness I think?). You have to shake the bottle a bit to get the glitter spread out, but it rolls on easily. It sparkles great as well.

Cheap body glitter if that is what you are looking for
Color: Laser Green
The container broke so be careful!!! Also, the glitter doesn’t really roll on that well and kept getting clumped into the sides of the roller. If you are looking for cheap body glitter this is it!! Otherwise, it lasts all day and washes off easily
