Description
Nanochromis parilus is a rarer West African dwarf cichlid. Visually and breeding-wise, they share many similarities with kribs, but are smaller and generally have a better attitude. Females are the more colourful sex, with a plump, pink belly; however, both sexes sport lovely golden colour with a metallic green flank patch. A good fit for most community aquaria, although they do not tolerate excessively dirty water.
