''Red Tilapia''

[Aircut64]

Hi, I don't know if I post my thread on the right side of the forum, but right me if I'm wrong.

Yesterday...I went to one of Sweden's most popular aquaculture store with my good friend (Malcus @ MFK).

I saw a strange Tilapia, the body was black, and the tail was red.
I've seen that kind of Tilapia in India once when I was there and chilled out with some angling.
The problem is that I don't know which species it is... :/

So now I want to buy that Tilapia..
But.. do you guys think that I can keep it alone in the tank? Or should I have it with more of them ?

Cheers

I saw one of those on ice today at the seafood store while buying 11 pounds of crablegs.

I never thought you could keep one...

I think that could be a mozambique mouthbrooder.

Does it look like this picture?
