Electric Yellow ( 4 CM )

The Electric Yellow is a popular Lake Malawi Mbuna cichlid, admired for its bright solid yellow body and relatively peaceful temperament compared to other Mbuna species. At 4 cm, these juveniles are still growing and developing their bold colour, making them an excellent choice for new or established Malawi cichlid aquariums.

Electric Yellows are semi-aggressive but generally peaceful, thriving in rock-dwelling setups with plenty of caves, crevices, and compatible tankmates. Their vivid yellow colour and active behaviour make them a standout in any community of similarly sized African cichlids.
