(Pseudotropheus johannii)

Remarks: Formerly a member of Melanochromis, Pseudotropheus johannii is a small mbuna that boasts a feisty temper. Males are black with electric blue stripes, much like Maingano cichlids, while females are yellow. Because of their somewhat nasty temperament, we recommend keeping them as a group of one male to 4-6 females in a tank larger than 50 gallons. They are compatible with most mbuna species, provided they don't look too similar.   Scientific Name: Pseudotropheus johanni Common Name: Max Size: 5" pH: 7.5-8.4 Hardness: Hard Temperature: 74-82° Aggressiveness: Aggressive Region of Origin: Lake Malawi, Africa Captive Bred or Wild: Captive Bred Diet: Flake food low in protein Compatibility: Mbuna, Synodontis Tank Mate Options: Malawi Golden Cichlid Metriaclima auratus Pseudotropheus lombardoi *****Please review our Shipping and Handling FAQ prior to placing your order.
