Red Hump Geophagus Cichlid

Red hump geophagus are classic eartheaters. They like to eat spit substrate, but who doesn’t. Males develop the big red hump on their heads that give them their namesake. Our red hump geophagus are wild caught in Colombia and will get great color. Females also sort color but the bump is not as predominant. Current shipping size – no red hump will be apparent.
