Name: Rainbow Cichlid
Scientific Name: Herotilapia multispinosa
Temperature: 72-82F
Max Size: 4-6 inches


A territorial but peaceful medium sized cichlid. Like most cichlids, they like plenty of hiding places, rocky caves or terricotta pots are very affective. Some hardy plants are appreciated, they'll nibble at them but won't destroy them. Keep in groups of at least three.
