Special Requirements - Keep them in groups if possible to calm aggression.
Tanks Mates and Compatibility - They should be kept in Cichlid safe environments. They can be chasers and fin nippers and if it will fit in its mouth, it will be eaten.

We recommend:
Please note – Some images used are library photos and will show the colour potential at a fully mature size, as our fish are juvenilles they may vary.
We always aim to supply the fish as close to the purchase size as possible. However if this is not possible, we will always contact you to discuss.
The fish are selected at random however you are welcome to make a note on the order and the fish manager will do his best for you. This is dependent on current stock at the time of your order.
