Red Texas Cichlid - Grade A (Peeling Skin) *Pre-order Only*

The Red Texas Cichlid is a striking hybrid fish, prized for its intense red coloration, pearly iridescence, and bold personality. This Grade A variant is in the peeling stage, meaning its colors are still developing, and over time, it will shed its juvenile pattern to reveal a more vivid red base with flecks of white or blue. Each Red Texas develops uniquely, with some achieving deep, fiery red hues.

Known for their aggressive and territorial nature, Red Texas Cichlids require a large aquarium with strong filtration. They are best housed with robust, similarly aggressive tank mates or kept alone. A high-protein diet supports their growth, coloration, and overall health.
