The Cichlid Room Companion - Thorichthys pasionis (Rivas 1962), the yellow meeki The yellow meeki range extends eastwards reaching the Rio Usumacinta affluents in the Petén area in northern Guatemala, where it seems to be especially abundant. The water in the yellow meeki habitat is normally characterized by low visibility, although not murky, which is not surprising considering the nature of the sediment. The yellow meeki is not a very active cichlid and prefers to move slowly and stay close to their preferred spot or territory in the lower thirty centimeters of the tank. www.cichlidae.com /article.php?id=148   (3790 words)

Firemouth Cichlid - Thorichthys meeki meeki spawns like many other cichlids, forming mated pairs at about a year old and laying eggs in a cave. There are varied opinions as to whether T. meeki is suitable for the community aquarium, and there is no doubt that when at full size (15+ cm), it is not a good tankmate for most tetras or other small fish. meeki is by nature a territorial fish, and though the displays it puts on to ward off attackers and other cichlids are impressive, and chase is often given, little actual damage is ever done to the fish themselves. www.aquahobby.com /gallery/e_meeki.php   (906 words)
