My chocolate cichlid

[south coast nelly]

Just lately he is colouring up very nicely indeed, even if i say so myself,
what do you think of him

thats an interesting colour for an uaru

Not a uaru, it's a chocolate cichlid Hypselacara Temporalis.
A very nice one indeed.
I had one a few years back who would change colors almost daily
Would go from greenish to deep burgundy red, to purple, he was a great fish with a great personality. Unfortunately some mysterious plague wiped out my entire tank, a couple years back and only a TSN survived, just barely.
Good luck with him, he is beautiful.
