Here's a cichlid that you don't see often. Vieja ufermanni. I have a pair and a spare in a 125 gallon tank. Really an under rated fish. Very pretty and subtle blues and yellows.

Female squaring off with the male. This is the smaller of the two female...also a little beat up.

Here's the other female...looking fine.

You don't see them often. I got these from Jeff Rapps years ago.
