Apistogramma Sunset Dwarf Cichlid

Apistogramma Sunset Dwarf Cichlid

Viejita apistogrammas are called the sunset apistogramms due to their strong yellow and orange colors as they reach two inches.

Apistogrammas and rams are the smallest cichlids and are very adaptive to planted and community tanks. Males are very beautiful.

Smaller fish have shorter lives, and apistogrammas generally live four years, with the exception of the Hongsloi, which lives to seven years. There are two hundred different dwarf cichlids and AFS imports numerous species. Pictured is a mature male and a juvenile male (smaller picture). AquariumFish generally ships the juvenile aged fish.
