The females' fins are not as well-developed as the males' fins.

| BREEDING |
|
These fish breed in caves. The parents guard their offspring very carefully. These fish are very productive; so before purchasing them, make sure you know of people you can give young fish to. (Most keepers of Tanganyikan cichlids are no longer interested in the fish as there are just too many of them, they are 'too easy', and therefore, they are not much of a challenge.)
