I love these fish. I had a spawning pair years ago. I could scratch the big males head. I would be in bed and could hear him sifting through the gravel. We moved, and he was never the same after living in a cooler for a few days. I can’t wait to get a bigger tank and get em again. That video is outstanding.

They would change it if the fish from that particular locality are distinct enough to merit their own species within the genus Geophagus, alongside brasiliensis and other species.

Kind of like the blue and the black umbee?
