Apistogramma eremnopyge

The Apistogramma eremnopyge Diamond is a stunning dwarf cichlid known for its brilliant diamond-like sparkle and vibrant coloration. This beautiful species displays exceptional colors with shimmering scales that catch the light, making it a prized centerpiece fish for any aquarium. Native to South America, these peaceful cichlids are perfect for planted community tanks with other small, non-aggressive fish.

These dwarf cichlids prefer well-planted aquariums with plenty of hiding spots, caves, and driftwood. They thrive in soft, slightly acidic water and appreciate dim lighting with floating plants. Apistogramma eremnopyge are carnivorous and do best on a varied diet of high-quality pellets, frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp, and occasional live foods. Their peaceful nature and stunning appearance make them ideal for both intermediate and experienced aquarists.
