Papiliochromis ramirezi

Ramirez's dwarf cichlid is sensitive to water quality, so you will need to carry out regular, partial changes; it also prefers well-planted aquariums with plenty of hiding places. The female lays between 300 and 400 eggs on a flat stone. There is also a golden (xanthochromic) variety of this species, arrived at by artificial selection. Size: 6 cm.
