Young juvenile stock of Red Frontosa (Cyphotilapia frontosa, red morph), a selectively bred variant valued for the warm tones it may develop as it matures. At this early stage, juveniles show minimal coloration, and any future red, orange, or golden hues depend heavily on lighting, environment, diet quality, and long-term care.

This slow-growing, calm cichlid is known for its impressive adult presence and gentle social behaviour when kept in groups. Provide a spacious, stable aquarium with rock structures and clean, alkaline water to support healthy development as the fish grows.

Fish Size Guide:

The 'Maximum Size' outlined below is the length this fish can reach as a full grown adult. For the actual size please use the select menu above.

Discus.ae prefers younger stock for their better ability to adapt to new water parameters and higher tolerance against transport. On rare occasions you may receive larger specimens when small fish are unavailable, however the smallest should be expected unless the size is noted as "Large" or "Adult".
