Blockheads are a great cichlid, there was a bloke giving away a breeding pair last year on here,also the fish show i went had a stunning female there, They sometimes have them in at lfs, they as far as i remember are from fast flowing water and have something with there floating aid which leaves them as bottom dwellers....

think they are described as lazy buggers nelly they hop and jump rather than really swim.. oh my heart is set

Wow, there's a fish I've never seen before! I wish I still had a tank large enough to house one
