True Red Terror for sale

Among the most colorful and showy South American Cichlids, the True Red Terror or Festae Cichlid is a large growing and extremely territorial fish. Found in the coastal drainages of Ecuador and Northern Peru, they inhabit clear or whitewater rivers and streams, usually over rocky substrate. In the aquarium, they are aggressive even by cichlid standards, and should be kept singly or with other large fish aggressive enough to hold their own.

Sexing note: We do not guarantee sex. However, if you want us to select a likely female, we require the purchase of two fish otherwise we will choose randomly from the batch. It is also necessary to make this request in the notes section at checkout.
