{{Basic fish page<br />
|origin=:South America: Paraná River basin, in the Paraguay River drainage in Brazil and Paraguay; Amazon River basin, in the Guaporé (Brazil and Bolivia), Madre de Dios (Peru), Mamoré (Bolivia), Jamari and Tapajós (Brazil) River drainages.<br />
|sexing=:These fish are quite difficult to visually sex. The pectoral and anal fins of mature males will be slightly more elongated, but this is not a definite way of sexing them.<br />
|tank_compatibility=:A shy Cichlid that is generally peaceful and does well housed with similar-sized peaceful fish. Should not be housed with small fish such as [[Neon Tetra]]s as they will be eaten. Can be kept in pairs and with other generally peaceful American Cichlids such as [[Angelfish]] and [[German Blue Ram]]s.<br />
|diet=:Does well fed on a meaty diet including [[daphnia]] and [[brine shrimp]] as well as pellet and flake food. They will also willingly accept and benefit from vegetarian foods including pellet and flake and may nibble blanched vegetables.<br />
|feeding_regime=:Feed once or twice a day.<br />
|environment_specifics=:These fish should be in a spacious tank with good filtration and well aerated but not too strong a current. They must be provided with plenty of hiding places in plants and bogwood. They are quite sensitive to nitrates, so nitrites to water quality must be kept immaculate.<br />
|behaviour=:A shy and timid American Cichlid.<br />
|identification=:An oval-shaped fish with a pointed snout. The body is pale in colour and the dorsal, pelvic, and anal fins are elongated and whitish-yellow. The back of the fish is grey/dark grey and there is a distinctive diagonal dark band which runs from the eye to the caudal end of the dorsal fin.<br />
