The Threadfin Acara is the only representative of the Acarichthys family, closely related to the Eartheaters. They love to dig but are very territorial toward their own kind, so if keeping more than one a huge territory allowment must be made. See this article for breeding behaviour as well - A real challenge to Cichlid Keepers and a really attractive, rewarding fish as well.

Threadfin Acara

Also a picture of my Male. He is rather secretive but is much more confident than he used to be. He tends to pal around with the Parrot Pacu a lot B)
