Just joined and I have a few tanks with cichlid and tetra. I got this cichlid and can't figure out what it is. If anyone can help I would be very greatful!!
I commented on the other thread before I saw this. I guessed livingstoni but didn't look it up to confirm, definitely possible Craig is right about it being a Fusco. It will grow fast and start eating anything that fits in its mouth.
I also agree with Craig. They can grow up to 10" and need a large tank with plenty of swimming space. It is a good idea to only mix them with other large fish like Blue Dolphin, Super Red Empress or Taiwan Reef Cichlids.
