These somewhat large cichlids, are a perfect example of the hunter fish. They have a slender body and are very adept swimmers. During feeding time they manage to eat twice as much as the others. Swift, dextrous movements, and a huge mouth, assure they grab a generous amount of food. Both sexes posses a diagonal horizontal line, and the males, when of age, become a deep blue color. Their somewhat unusual shape and interesting habits make them truly a fine addition to any large Hap tank.
