Comments: A very shy, peaceful cichlid characterized by a keyhole shaped marking on its flank (which sometimes appears as only a black dot) and a black stripe through the eye. They like warm, slightly soft to slightly basic water. Keyholes make an excellent community tank fish. Avoid over agressive tankmates. Keyholes do well with small Tetras. Thier personalities develop after being accustomed to thier new home, but they remain easily scared. Take caution during water changes not to stress them out. When they are stressed they will turn a mottled brown color.
