Another of the favoured, relatively friendly Central American Cichlids, these fish are very easy and rewarding to keep. They grow into good sized fish that are easy and interesting to breed; showing good colour and displaying all the usual cichlid breeding behaviour right in front of you, since they are not very shy.
