Clarice Brough - 2015-04-25 I bet somebody is going after the juveniles. These fish are very aggressive! A group of at least 12 (11 females and one male) are the recommended minimum, and kept in a tank of between 75 to 125 gallons. The tank then needs to have tons of hiding places. It is further best that they be kept as the only species (i.e no other types of cichlids unless the tank is even larger).
Jim and Sandy - 2014-07-27 Hi .....I'm so sad,we are going to have to go and trade our large white spotted cichlid ,he/ she has tormented 4 of our other gorgeous cichlids to he finally killed them....I just love him,but we can't go on losing our other ones because of the 1 ....we find him extremely aggressive . :(

Anonymous - 2014-07-27 I know how you feel. When I first started getting cichlids I put a Dempsey in with some other community type fish. DOH! I guess I was being optimistic but of course it didn't work out. Now I only keep Dempseys singly or in breeding pairs. That first experience though was not pleasant, especially since the fish store guy kind told me how naive I was.

The White Spotted Cichlid is a fanciful spotted youth that turns into a gorgeously banded adult!
