The fish you will receive are approximately 3cm

The yellow lab is ones of the most popular of all rift lake cichlids due to its stunning yellow coloration, although it is just one colour morph of a species known as the Blue Streak Haps. It is also a prolific breeder. They can be susceptible to Malawi bloat.

Species – Yellow Lab – Labidochromis caureleus

Current Size – 3cm

Adult Length – 10cm

Temperature Range – 23 - 28°C

pH Range – 7.5 – 8.5

Special Requirements - All African Cichlids are territorial to other males.  Yellow Labs are no exception to this, although they are fairly easy going when compared to most other mbunas.

Tanks Mates and Compatibility – The yellow lab is a fairly easy going Mbuna and can be housed with most other Malawi Cichlids.

Feeding – Labidochromis Caeruleus are Mbuna and Mbuna need vegetables (herbivores) while other Cichlids mainly feed in high protein, frozen and even live foods (omnivores, carnivores or piscivores). Providing Yellow Labs with too much protein may cause the Malawi bloat disease which is extremely difficult to be treated and usually fatal.
