Product Description

maulana "Bi-Color 500", like all other Aulonocara spp., is a mircro-predator. They subsist upon the invertebrates that dwell in the upper layers of the sand and sediment. It lies motionless over the sandy bottom, sensing micro-movements in the substrate. When it finds a target, it darts rapidly into the sand and sifts it by shooting the sand out its gills while retaining the acquired treat. In the aquarium, they readily accept pellets, flakes, frozen food, and occassional live treats of brine shrimp, mysis, or daphnia. Scientific Name: Aulonocara maulana
