Description
Cyprichromis leptosoma "Yellow Head" - 1-2" Unsexed F1. Remarks : One of the most colorful variants of the species, Cyprichromis leptosoma "Yellow Head" are a must have for Tanganyikan collectors. When in breeding dress, males have an electric blue body, a sunshine yellow head and caudal fin, and a dorsal and anal fin that are pitch black. When not displaying, they tend to be more of a silver color like the females. Cyprichromis leptosoma are a mild-mannered cichlid from Lake Tanganyika that exhibit shoaling behaviors higher in the water column. This makes them excellent tankmates for shell- or cave-dwelling cichlids, which rarely venture higher into open water. They act as a relaxing agent for other species as well, much like tetras do with dwarf cichlids - if the Cyprichromis are swimming in the open, it must be "safe." Cyprichromis are long.
