Red Petrochromis are all from Mahale National Park though they do not occur at Bulu Point in the north of the park. But the most fish caught in or near the national park get shipped via Bulu Point. Thats why they are often exported and imported as Bulu Point. Some people call them as Petrochromis sp. Mahale. There are 3 known catch locations. Luagala Point and Lubugwe Bay in the middle and Lyamembe at the south end of the park.
The fish I brought in wild came from (Lybembe Reef ) located of the Mahale National park. They are offer sold as Mahale or Lybembe reef. My ad said Lybembe reef the red tail variety, not the cheaper black tail variety from Lugala point. Here’s a good article that describes the location in better detail.
