Gymnogeophagus lipokarenos for sale

The Rainbow Humphead Eartheater (Gymnogeophagus lipokarenos) is a stunning, peaceful Cichlid found throughout cooler rivers of Southern Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina. Like all eartheaters, they are adapted to ingest mouthfuls of fine sand substrate and sift out small food items like insect larvae and crustaceans. In the aquarium, they tend to do best in groups and will coexist with a variety of similarly peaceful cichlids or other fish species, and they are generally safe even with much smaller fish. These will do best in soft, cool water (pH 7.0 or below, temperatures of 65-75F).
