The Texas Cichlid is a striking freshwater fish known for its iridescent blue-green spots and robust personality. It is the only cichlid species native to the United States.
Moderate care difficulty. Requires a spacious aquarium with a sandy substrate and plenty of rocks or driftwood to create hiding spots and territorial boundaries.
Omnivorous and opportunistic. They should be fed a varied diet of high-quality cichlid pellets, flakes, and occasional frozen foods like bloodworms or brine shrimp.
Territorial and can be aggressive, especially during breeding. Best kept with other large, robust Central or South American cichlids or in a species-only setup.
Thrives in clean, well-filtered freshwater with moderate flow.
Can reach an adult size of approximately 12 inches (30 cm).
