Malawi

Acei Cichlid (Pseudotropheus acei)

A slender Malawi mbuna with electric blue bodies and yellow fins — more of an algae browser than many rock-dwelling cousins.

One of Lake Malawi’s most popular mbuna — brilliant yellow bodies, manageable aggression for African cichlids, and nonstop rock-hopping energy.

A majestic Tanganyikan cichlid with a nuchal hump and bold bars — calm for a large African cichlid, but needs big water and patient growth.
