A pair of Pelvicachromis Sacrimontis that are getting up to size and ready for a new home. I will provide some updated photos at some point closer to the auction of the exact fish you'll be bidding on.

Pelvicachromis Sacrimontis, or the "giant krib," is similar to Pelvicachromis Pulcher in behavior but differs in size and coloration. So they are also fantastic parent's and great to watch raise their fry. They are a CARES species if you're interested in breeding this is a great project to start on.

They come in three main color morphs, and I believe that I have the green one. However, you'll see that they have a lot of color variation in their offspring.

The males display long fin extensions with a bright white outline and that classic red belly with striking bright cheeks. Females have a fantastic dark black body with that red belly and striking turquoise cheeks with a white line across the body which is quite attractive.

Colors and patters vary color mood greatly. You may be surprised at the different patterns and color changes they display in different settings.

When spawning they will show aggression in driving fish away from their territory, but I have found they rarely do any serious damage. I find they sometimes benefit as a pairs in the future by having something to chase off together to strengthen their bond. They are well paired with fish that spend most of their time in the mid/top water column, although I have kept them with other bottom-feeding fish. I have also kept them with CPDs and some other smaller fish, and they do well with those.

They are one of the few fish I keep that I can say will absolutely decimate shrimp, though!
