Cobalt Blue Cichlid

Cobalt Blue Cichlid

One of the most popular mbunas due to its solid cobalt blue color and gets along with other zebra cichlids and haplochromis cichlids, but aggressive towards mild-mannered cichlids. Cobalt cichlids are good species for the aquarium, since this pet fish only grows to 3 1/2 inches.

Just as in the wild, these cichlids prefer rocky areas to inhabit and breed. Cobalt Blue, or Cobalt Zebra Cichlids, are mouth brooders and easy to breed.
