Livingston's Cichlids are renowned for their stunning coloration and interesting behavior, particularly their mimicry of a dead fish to ambush prey. They are known to be somewhat aggressive and territorial, making them better suited for experienced aquarists. Cohabitation with other sufficiently large and robust African Cichlids or similarly-sized fish is advised.
