Product Description

Malawi "Hap" Cichlids "Haps" As they are known can be some of the most stunning fish in your cichlid tank. Most do not show any color other than brown as juveniles and then like the ugly duckling they turn out to be the most colorful fish you have ever seen. They range in aggression and are best kept with other Malawi or Victorian cichlids. Nicknamed the "Red Fin" because females and juveniles sport red fins, which contrasts beautifully with a grayish black body. A very mild mannered species. Multiple males and females will school together in the aquarium when not sexually active. Males are mildly aggressive during active courtship. Spawning takes place usually atop a rock or flat surface. This is certainly one of the fastest growing cichlids and "fattens up" quite easily. Geo. Origin: Found at nearly every rocky habitat along the shoreline of Lake Malawi.
