Labeotropheus fuelleborni - Grow to 7inch.. Quite aggressive ime, but really only to their own kind.
Astatotilapia Calliptera - Ive never kept these fish before.. but ive had a quick look on CF and i cant find the species 'Calliptera', but HERE is a list of the Astatotilapia genus. Pseudotropheus Elongatus - Ive got a trio of Pseudotropheus Elongatus "Usisya".. on their CF profile, its says they're 'Mildly Aggressive' but my male is more aggressive than most of my other mbuna. He aint a bully, just dont like any other fish get too close. They generally grow to 4inch. |

Labeotropheus Fuelleborni - mbuna, herbivores, they get up to 7" and are on the aggressive end of the mbuna spectrum, as such they should be kept with other aggressive species and in a minimum 75gal tank.
Astatotilapia Calliptera - they eat snails and other invertebrates, extremely territorial, you should only keep 1 male to a tank, they get up to about 4 inches. http://www.cichlidae.com/gallery/species.php?s=11 Pseudotropheus Elongatus - up to 6 inches, another highly aggressive species, avoid keeping similar looking species and multiple males. |
