Feisty around breeding time; plan territory in advance
原産地
Lake Tanganyika, Africa
種の概要
Cichlidae species Julidochromis transcriptus 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 5.2–7.7 cm. Pairs or harems in tanks with broken sightlines. Strong filtration, hardscape boundaries and a steady routine turn a brawler into a showpiece. Maintain 22–25 °C at pH 8.5–9.2. A solid choice for a well-planned community tank.
