Festae

 

[fobrinkle]

specifically a female festae

 

[Kendra]

Wow thanks! Just done a search on it and my do they get large! Are there any other american cichlids out there that are of similar colour but smaller?

 

[VRWC]

yes...one of my favorite looking ones is the Australoheros sp. "Red Ceibal" and they are way smaller. I think they might top out around 4 inches...Ive never had them, just what I think I remember reading.

What about Salvini? Yellow/blue/black/red combo

 

[specialized002]

Female salvini is an absolutely stunning fish, staying on the smaller side to if I'm not mistaken...4-6" I have a female and by far one of my favorite fish!!

 

[Sarah88]

yeah ceibals and salvinis are SWEET, and ceibals have the added bonus of not having to use a heater

 

[Steel1978]

both fish are good salvini and red ceibal both not good together much different agrression Ceibal is very peaceful
