Cichlid - Red Lifalili Jewel

Red Lifalili Jewel Cichlid

Scientific Name: Hemichromis lifalili
Maximum Length: About 4 inches
Favorite Things: Warm, well-decorated environments with rocks, driftwood, and open swimming space. The Red Lifalili Jewel Cichlid is one of the brightest freshwater fish available, displaying intense cherry-red coloration, iridescent blue spots, and more glow as they mature. Their color becomes especially vibrant during breeding.
They thrive on high-quality cichlid pellets, frozen brine/mysis, spirulina flakes, and color-enhancing foods.
Best Buddies: Best kept in a species tank or with robust, fast-moving African cichlids. They are territorial, especially during breeding. Not ideal for peaceful community setups.
