Dicas de identificação

  1. 1

  2. 2

    Size and Shape

    Small, high-bodied, and laterally compressed cichlid, typically under 7 cm. This helps differentiate it from larger cichlid species.

    Fin Morphology

    Look for the elongated, often filamentous pelvic fins and the potentially extended anterior dorsal fin rays, especially in males.
