Placidochromis Electra - Deep Water Hap - Haplochromis Electra

Effortless elegance from the deep waters of Lake Malawi.

The Placidochromis Electra, affectionately known as the Deep Water Hap, is one of Lake Malawi's most serene and visually captivating cichlids. At 4" this fully mature male is displaying his complete adult colouration — a shimmering, metallic blue that shifts and catches the light with every movement, making him an effortless standout in any Malawi display.

Sourced directly from our premium Thailand supplier, our Deep Water Haps are a cut above what you'll typically find in the hobby. Hand selected for colour intensity, health, and grade, these are fish that genuinely turn heads.

What makes ours different:

• 4" fully coloured adult male — no waiting for colour to develop
• Super high grade Thailand import — exceptional metallic blue iridescence
• Active, healthy, and eating well

Care notes: A peaceful and relatively easygoing hap, well suited to community Malawi tanks with peacocks and other non-aggressive haps. Thrives at pH 7.8–8.5 in a tank of 75 gallons or more.

Canada-wide shipping available. Live arrival guaranteed.

A timeless addition to any Malawi display — and one that never fails to impress.
