These fish are one of the many unique species that come from Brazil’s Amazon River. They are found in the river basin and its tributaries in Peru, Colombia, and Guiana.

They are one of the most popular freshwater Cichlid choices due to their fancy appearance, ease of care, and lack of aggression compared to other Cichlid species.

In well-kept tanks, these fish can live up to 10 years. They reach maturity at around 10 months of age.

Since they are so popular, you can find them at most aquarium suppliers and pet shops.

On average they will cost around $10 – specialty breeds will cost between $20 and $40, depending on the variety and the quality.

Typical Behavior

Like most Cichlids, they can be quite aggressive. They will form small hierarchies and fight to defend their positions. If you catch your angels’ locking lips, they are actually fighting.

They will form small schools but are not particularly social with the others in their school. They are quite territorial and are more likely to fight than cooperate.
However, they are not as aggressive as other Cichlids. They are not likely to bully others outside of their school.

You can watch them as they weave in and out of your aquarium plants in the middle level of your tank. Although they might hide in an overcrowded tank, they are otherwise very showy fish.

These fish are one of the few species that take care of their young. They will fiercely defend their eggs and rear the newly-hatched larvae and fry for up to two months.

Outside of competition and mating, they will not interact much with each other. You should not expect to see coordinated swimming patterns and cooperative foraging.
