Sometimes it is also simply known as Hongi Cichlid, as a reference to where it is found in nature. They are also sometimes labeled as Red Top Kimpuna. Their bodies are bluish purple in color and the top half of their head and back is a vibrant blood orange hue. They have thick black banding and orange finnage. Males are larger and more brightly colored; females and juveniles may be somewhat brown toned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tank should have plenty of rockwork for them to hide in. They can be territorial and males will be aggressive towards their own species, so if housed in a group they will do best with one male and multiple females. They are mouth-brooders and will spawn in captivity. They can live with other semi-aggressive cichlid species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile they will eat meaty preparations meant for their tankmates, they are herbivores and should be given plenty of vegetable matter. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImages used on this site are for informational purposes only, for actual photos of livestock please contact us (877) 809-4067.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cichlid Exchange","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":67763521913002,"sku":"jgp1793121532122","price":7.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":67763521945770,"sku":"bwd1793121532123","price":22.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/7689\/7194\/files\/red-top-hongi_1.png?v=1793121542","url":"https:\/\/lougnatproof.shop\/products\/red-top-hongi","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
