Fish Facts

Mikrogeophagus altispinosus is an attractive small cichlid from Bolivia. A hardier alternative to the Blue Ram - M. ramirezi, it is more suited to most community set ups.

Fish Tip

Fish are much more likely to spawn when in good condition - feed your fish with live food such as grindal worm and daphnia for larger broods.
