Sold at 1.5”, these large growing, peaceful South American Cichlids are revered for their beautiful colours and interesting shape. They can be kept in a South American community tank or species tank. They are omnivorous and graze the bottom of the tank throughout the day, turning over the sand bed, as the name "Geophagus" translates to earth eater. They can grow up to 10 inches so a 55 gallon or larger is recommended for a pair.
