Mesonauta festivus (Old genus name Cichlasoma)

Unlike other Cichlids, the flag cichlid - sometimes called the festive cichlid, and not to be confused with the other flag cichlid, Aequidens curviceps - lays its eggs on vertical surfaces, while the larvae are subsequently attached to another support by the parents. A temperamental fish: keep it separate from smaller species. Size: 20 cm.
