Artübersicht

Cichlidae species Neolamprologus multifasciatus comes from Lake Tanganyika, Africa. Territory is its whole worldview; rocks arranged as walls calm what open water cannot. It lives on the bottom. Adults reach 3–4.4 cm. Singly, in pairs, or as a harem — never crowded. Strong filtration, hardscape boundaries and a steady routine turn a brawler into a showpiece. Maintain 24–26 °C at pH 8–9. Best suited to a keeper who can match its natural water.
