Cichlids in the paracromis family

Cubans are Nandopsis tetracanthus, not Parachromis.

Jags are Parachromis managuensis.

Motas are Parachromis motaguensis.


All are different species of Central American cichlids, and all are on the more aggressive end of the spectrum.

There's also a thread on these abbreviations by oddball. I'm just to lazy to go looking for it right now, but should be readily available through the search function
