The Pseudotropheus Acei is a peaceful, colorful, and energetic fish. They are best kept in groups to influence their schooling behavior naturally observed in the wild. Tank setups should mimic their natural environment with ample swimming space, rock formations, and sandy substrates. Ideal tank mates include other non-aggressive Malawi Cichlids.
