Information about care

Don't keep Flier cichlid with small fish in small tanks. Empty spaces for swimming are required as well as places to hide. As it is a Cichlid from the Central America region, its behavior is similar to other cichlids from such places. Smaller fish could become a dinner under stressful conditions.

Anyway, Archocentrus centrarchus is very nice and they feel good in quality tanks.
