Agassiz's Dwarf Cichlid (Apistogramma agassizii)

Agassiz's Dwarf Cichlid (Apistogramma agassizii) is a small, beautiful and striking South American cichlid, distinguished by its elongated body, vibrant coloration and attractive fins, particularly in males. It reaches approximately 6-8 cm and does best in a well-established aquarium with plants, driftwood, leaf litter and plenty of hiding places. It can be kept with small, peaceful fish, but may become territorial during breeding.
