Callochromis melanostigma - 1-2" Unsexed F1. Remarks: Callochromis melanostigma are fascinating medium-sized Tanganyikan cichlids found in the southern end of the lake. They have a unique shape with their large eyes and tall dorsal fin that seems to end abruptly above where the ventral fins are located. The rounded front of the dorsal fin along with the small, darker colored spikes atop it gives an almost buzzsaw appearance. While females and juveniles are mostly gray, mature males display metallic gold colors on their bodies and fins that seem to shimmer in the light occasionally with a green sheen. Their dorsal fins also contain 4-5 black spots and their anal fins display yellow egg spots. The eyes of males can range anywhere from gold to orange. All these aspects come together to form a truly stunning fish for which pictures canno. Source: Imperial Tropicals live fish catalogue.
