Aquarist Notes
Genetic Line: F1 First Generation
Year Acquired: 2022
One of my absolute favorites. My male runs my 90 gallon Mbuna tank. Very aggressive over territory. Will attack pretty much any tank mate no matter the size if territory is infringed upon. Will update species instance photo when I find my camera and capture a photo worthy of display, as the male pictured has grown considerably since 2023 when this picture was taken.
