百度查娱乐还行,查科普还不够精确。
光CICHLID一项,就能数出少说也近千种,
坦葛尼喀湖 The lake holds at least 250 species of cichlid fish and 75 species of non-cichlid fish,[6] most of which live along the shoreline down to a depth of approximately 180 metres (590 ft). The largest biomass of fish, however, is in the pelagic zone (open waters) and is dominated by six species: two species of "Tanganyika sardine" and four species of predatory Lates (related to, but not the same as, the Nile perch that has devastated Lake Victoria cichlids). Almost all (98%) of the Tanganyikan cichlid species are endemic to the lake, and Lake Tanganyika is thus an important biological resource for the study of speciation in evolution.[3][7] Among the non-cichlid fish, 59% of the species are endemic.[6]
Many species of cichlids from Lake Tanganyika, such as fish from the brightly coloured Tropheus genus, are popular fish among aquarium owners due to their bright colors. Recreating a Lake Tanganyika biotope[8] to host those cichlids in an habitat similar to their natural environment is also popular in the aquarium hobby.
