Young adults now at breeding age.  Sex is not guaranteed to be a pair, but tried to put a pair in the bag.

​The species Laetacara curviceps is commonly known as the Flag Acara. It is also referred to by several other names, including the Dwarf Flag Cichlid, Smiling Acara, Sheepshead Acara, and Blunt-head Cichlid. These various common names highlight the fish's distinctive appearance and behavior.

The Dwarf Flag Cichlid is a charming and peaceful addition to freshwater aquariums, appreciated for its subtle beauty and manageable size. Typically reaching up to 7 cm (2.8 inches) in length, these cichlids display a gentle temperament, making them well-suited for community tanks with similarly non-aggressive species such as tetras, Corydoras catfish, and small gouramis. Their coloration is generally subdued, featuring soft blues and yellows, but during breeding periods, males can exhibit more vibrant hues and elongated fin extensions. To ensure their well-being, maintain water temperatures between 22–26°C (71–79°F) and a pH range of 6.0–7.5. Providing a well-planted environment with hiding spots like driftwood and caves will mimic their natural habitat and promote natural behaviors. Breeding pairs often form strong bonds and prefer to spawn on flat surfaces, with both parents actively guarding their eggs and fry. This parental care, combined with their serene nature and attractive appearance, makes the Dwarf Flag Cichlid a delightful choice for aquarists seeking a harmonious and engaging community tank inhabitant.
