Turkana Jewel (Breeding Pair)
Description
The Turkana Jewel (Hemichromis Exsul) is a unique fish that is known for its virbrant red appearance that is accompanied by neon blue and green spots in adulthood. This African species, which is native to Kenya's Lake Turkana, loves water conditions comparable to those seen in the New World (South and Central America). It is very quiet for a cichlid of its size (outside of mating season) and might perhaps be housed in a cichlid community setting in a large tank. The Turkana Jewel Cichlid thrives in an aquarium with plenty of hiding places, such as clay pots, driftwood, and rock formations.
