It wouldn't be a GPASI New & Rare without a cichlid. These butterfly cichlids (Anomalochromis thomasi) were donated by Roberto Prati to make sure everyone has something to bid on. Butterfly cichlids come from Coastal rivers in Africa. They only grow to 3"so they're a great addition to a community aquarium. Though they've been in the hobby for quite a while, they are still not common so you'll want to bid on these Sunday September 8 at our Fall Auc tion!
