Labeotropheus Fuelleborni Lethrinops

Labeotropheus Fuelleborni
Lethrinops

These are highly aggressive mbuna from Lake Malawi. They are grazers, and must have plant matter in their diet. They are polygamous mouthbrooders. One by itself is usually peaceful towards other tankmates, but, if they are going to be kept in groups, they need an aquarium at least 75 gallons in capacity. These fish are small members of the Mbuna group from Lake Malawi. They are generally extremely peaceful omnivores. They are best kept in tanks 30 gallons and up, only because they can reach moderate sizes. However, smaller specimens can easily be housed in 20 gallon tanks.
