Metriclima Callianos OB "Blueberry"

[MbunaBrotha]

Next on my species list is one of my favorite, the Metriclima Callianos OB "Blueberry". These fish are monomorphic, so the males and females of the species stay the same color. They get fairly large, topping off at around the 5" mark, and are very peaceful, making them another great addition to a community tank.

 

[The boring name]

They are peaceful? Never new that thanks for the new info ?

I've had mine for over a year without many problems at all. The male can get a bit rough during breeding time, but for the most part that aggression only goes towards the females of his species. He seems to leave the other species alone besides an occasional "get outta my cave!"
