Apistogramma Cockatoo Cichlid

The male Cockatoo or Apistogramma Cacatuoides dwarf cichlid is truly magnificent when he grows to his full two inch size. Females are a bit drabber but still have nice yellow and red coloration. Aquariumfishsale.com tries to pair when shipping more than one item, males just never display all their colors without a female around. These apistogrammas, like all apistos, are great additions to gentle community tanks, nano tanks, and planted aquariums.
