(Julidochromis transcriptus) "Zambia"
Out of stock
Remarks: Julidochromis transcriptus is a Tanganyikan cichlid that reaches 3" in length, making it one of the smaller "Julies." They sport a torpedo-shaped body covered in a black vertical stripe pattern, with a nice mask over their eyes. They inhabit rocky areas of the lake and can often be seen hovering upside-down below a rocky outcropping. Julies make for an excellent candidate for a breeder looking to try Tanganyikan cichlids, as they are cave spawners and tend to produce quite a few fry, which they raise for several weeks. Sexing is nearly impossible, so young groups should be kept together until they pair off.
