5 Spot Cheek Cichlid (Thorichthys maculipinnis) size .75" - 1"

Spot Cheek Cichlids (Thorichthys maculipinnis) make excellent pets due to their beautiful coloration, fascinating natural behaviors, and relatively peaceful temperament (these are still Cichlids after all). These cichlids are omnivorous and easy to feed with a variety of foods, including flakes, pellets, frozen, and live options, making care straightforward. They display engaging parental care, with both parents actively protecting and nurturing their fry, providing a rewarding experience for observers. Their moderate size and social nature allow them to be kept in groups or with compatible peaceful species. Overall, these guys offer a captivating and manageable choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists.  You won't see these around often, and when you do, they retail for $20 a piece! Don't miss your chance to bid on these five little beauties for a fraction of that price.
