Black-brown base body with red-gold bars on opercular cheeks for both males and females. Fully grown adult males have longer anal fins and caudal fins when compare to females Very similar to Foerschi except females have blue ventral fins. Like many of the species in the complex, females showed vertical bars on the body when in breeding mode. Mandor, foerschi, and Strohi are notoriously difficult to sex at a young age, older fish with longer finnage are much easier.
