Información del producto

🐟 Pinstripe Damba Cichlid – (Paretroplus menarambo) – Critically Endangered Madagascan Cichlid for Sale

The Pinstripe Damba (Paretroplus menarambo) is a large, peaceful, and extremely rare cichlid native to the freshwater lakes and rivers of northwestern Madagascar. Once thought extinct in the wild, this species has been brought back through dedicated conservation breeding programs, making it a prized addition for serious aquarists.

It gets its name from the subtle vertical pinstriping along its silvery body, with mature adults displaying a deep, laterally compressed shape and graceful, flowing fins. These fish thrive in groups and do best in large aquariums with plenty of open swimming space and stable water conditions.
