Also called Altolamprologus
Thank you Cichlid Press and Ad Konings for allowing me to use your pictures.
This is a new fish for me, I selected it from pictures. This fish likes rocky areas like most cichlids but will also use shells for hiding and breeding. The male is much larger than the female as much as four time larger in fact. This is a peaceful cichlid and should not be kept with aggressive Cichlids. (this information was gathered form different sources) I received 6 of these fish from Wet Thumb Aquatics (see links page) on 05/12/2000 through a local store. They where in great condition and where about 2" long.
