Albino Taiwan Reef Cichlid

Albino Taiwan Reef Cichlid

The Taiwan Reef Cichlid is a beautiful Haplochromis that has amazing colors and can grow up to 7 inches in size. The best thing about Taiwan reef cichlids is their gorgeous coloration, which will easily make them stand out among other fish in the aquarium.

Like most cichlids, the male fish are more vibrantly colored than the female ones. They have a predominantly yellow body with a bright blue coloration on their head, over their back, and down to their tail. Ob Taiwan reef cichlid has unique spotted patterns.

The pelvic and anal fins of a male Taiwan reef cichlid are red in color. A white stripe starts from the top of its head and ends along the tip of its dorsal fin like a border. The pectoral fins are usually a dull shade of brown. The pelvic fins become a rich color somewhere between orange and copper, trimmed in blue.

On the other hand, the flanks of these cichlids are a deeper shade of orange. There is some blue starting at the dorsal fins, then there are the anal fins, which are blue and white at the base at first, but will eventually transition into a brilliant and eye-catching shade of red
