    Who are we? We are The Midwest Cichlid Association. An exciting regional organization, dedicated to the promotion of keeping, breeding, and specialization of the cichlid fish hobby. We eat, sleep, and breathe cichlids! It doesn't matter if it's an Old World or a New World cichlid, we want to learn all we can about it, pass that information on to others, and then keep that network of hobbyists fully functional and growing together. As more and more people continue to connect to each other via the Internet, our network of hobbyist members will be able to ask questions, share their knowledge and experiences, and work together to promote this intricate hobby that each of us has come to enjoy so very much.
