| + | {{Basic fish page | ||
| + | |origin=:Central America: Atlantic slope of Guatemala and Belize. | ||
| + | |sexing=:Mature males are larger than females. They can be tricky to visually sex, mature males should also have a deeper body with more elongated dorsal and anal fins. Males will also be more territorial than females. | ||
| + | |tank_compatibility=:These are territorial Cichlids so are best either kept alone/in a bonded pair or to be kept with similar sized robust tank mates the tank should be well over {{gal|150|200}}, especially if other species of Cichlid are considered. In a suitably large-sized tank they can be kept with fast swimming [[Characin]]s or large robust catfish. | ||
| + | |diet=:A fairly unfussy fish that will accept most things including high quality Cichlid pellets, live/frozen food and blanched vegetables. | ||
| + | |feeding_regime=:Feed once or twice a day. | ||
| − | + | |environment_specifics=:As with many large Cichlids, the Chisel-Tooth Cichlid requires a very large tank for a pair. The tank should be spacious with excellent filtration. Décor is preferred to be predominantly rocky with plenty of caves and hiding places with some branchy [[bogwood]] also. | |
| − | + | |behaviour=:A large territorial Cichlid. | |
| − | + | |identification=:A large oval-shaped Cichlid which is pale olive-green in colour with a pale cream belly and some blue iridescence on the scales and fins. It has 5-6 vertical dark broken bands from the mid-section of its body to the caudal peduncle. | |
