Labidochromis Chisumulae

About

The Labidochromis Chisumulae is a species of Mbuna cichlid endemic to Lake Malawi in East Africa. It typically exhibits a vibrant electric blue body with distinct dark vertical bars, although coloration can vary based on location and individual. These fish are generally considered less aggressive than many other Mbuna cichlids but are still territorial and require plenty of rockwork for hiding places and to define territories. They are omnivores, feeding on insects and small invertebrates in the wild, as well as grazing on algae. They thrive in a species-specific or African cichlid community tank.
