Paretroplus Maculatus Cichlid REGULAR
The damba mipentina (Paretroplus maculatus) is a critically endangered species of cichlid fish from turbid, shallow flood-plain lakes in the Betsiboka and Ikopa River basins in northwestern Madagascar. It has declined drastically because of habitat loss, overfishing and invasive species. It is part of a captive breeding program by public institutions like London Zoo and among fishkeeping hobbyists. This relatively deep-bodied Paretroplus can easily be separate from other members of the genus by the large black spot on the side of the body. (12 in) in length.
