The Cockatoo Dwarf Cichlid (Apistogramma cacatuoides) is one of the most admired South American dwarf cichlids, known for its elegant shape, lively personality, and fascinating social behaviors. These specimens represent the wild-type form, showcasing the natural golden-tan body with dark lateral stripes, subtle blue iridescence, and fiery orange edging on the fins that inspired the name “Cockatoo.”
Our fish are tank-bred in Czech Republic, ensuring hardiness and adaptability to aquarium life while preserving the authentic appearance of this classic species. Their natural coloration and complex behaviors make them an excellent choice for aquarists who appreciate the pure, untamed beauty of the original form rather than a selectively bred variant.
Current size 1.25 - 1.75" Eating very well on our Apisto Crunchies and we'll include samples to make your acclimation easier.
