It is very rare for this fish to breed in aquariums. This pair is four years old and never spawned until now. Very surpirzing especially since they are in a community tank! Blue Sifter, Roberts Cichlid, Commonly called Turquoise Cichlid. The female is guarding her fry from other tankmates including P. Pollini black diamond cichlids from Madagascar. The male and female are in breeding colors with the male hanging out at the left side of the tank . In another video they both vigorously defend their fry and territory. Wonderfull fish with turquoise body and red tail. Looks like I will have some for sale in a few months .
