Black Convict Cichlid

Black Convict Cichlid

Central and South American cichlids range from rare atramaculatus to common blue acara, though common is not a fair word for this uncommonly peaceful pretty fish. Convict cichlids are so easy to breed they are never caught in the wild. These species will get aggressive as they grow, but adapt well to other large species in the tank.
