Geophagus Surinamensis 4"

Geophagus Surinamensis, also known as Redstriped earth eater, is a fairly peaceful cichlid. The Redstriped eartheater can get up to 11 inches, but is a slow grower. As adults they are very beautiful fish; they range in colors from bright yellow, blues, reds and almost iridescent. The Redstriped eartheater will sift through the substrate to find food, so consider the gravel when setting up the tank, it should be small river pebbles or sand.
