Goldeneye cichlid

About me: Hello, I am a shiny dwarf cichlid and, in the right light, look really pretty! As long as I am not in the mating and light season, I am quite a peaceful fellow. However, you should make sure that the other aquarium inhabitants swim further up. Please also check my friends below in this regard! Generally I naturally like it very much to hide in the planting and/or also in small caves. In aquariums with an edge length of less than 100 cm you should keep a maximum of only one pair, otherwise it becomes quite uncomfortable!
