Habitat: This is the primary location where the cichlid is found and is a generalization. This does not

feeders are flexible and can be opportunistic feeders.

are of a different species. Consider that there is variability in temperament due to various factors,
including aquarium size, tankmates of similar appearance, stocking levels, and order of introduction.
There may even be some variability among individual specimens.
