Males display a striking yellow-gold body with blue-purple sheen. A stuartgranti variant from Usisya bay. Moderately peaceful for Malawi standards.
Check the whole aquarium. Tank size alone does not establish compatibility. Confirm adult size, water overlap, social grouping, territory, diet, and the individual animals before stocking.
