Yah. They love eating plants, I guess I should have phrased it differently.That appears to be a Melanochromis auratus. When they are young, they stay a beautiful yellow color with white striping. When they mature the males turn black like yours. They are extremely aggressive, but with natural tank dividers such as floating plants, driftwood or rocks and over stocking, they will be fine. Also, Cichlids ACTUALLY do DO WELL with plants.
