| + | {{Basic fish page | ||
| + | |origin=:Endemic to Lake Malawi. | ||
| + | |sexing=:Mature males are vivid blue, females are a more grey colour with 3 black spots. Mature males are larger than females. Juvenile fish are all coloured as the mature female and males will develop the blue colours as they grow from about 8 months old. | ||
| + | |tank_compatibility=:A reasonably peaceful African Cichlid, can be kept with other Malawi Cichlids of similar size and temperament. | ||
| + | |diet=:This fish eats plankton in the wild, and is not a fussy eater in captivity. Will take cichlid pellets, [[krill]] or [[brine shrimp]]. | ||
| + | |feeding_regime=:Feed once or twice a day. | ||
| + | |environment_specifics=:Prefers rock decor, no planting, a sandy substrate and a strong current. | ||
| + | |behaviour=:Not as aggressive as some African Cichlids, likes rock work to hide in and needs open space to swim in. A sandy substrate is required if these fish are to breed as they dig nests. | ||
| + | |identification=:The males are a bright blue when mature, they are at their most colourful aged 10-12 months. They are blue with visible vertical bands, when younger they have three spots on their flanks. When mature the dorsal fin is edged with white. | ||
