Información del producto

🐟 Red Head Bahia Eartheater – (Geophagus sp. "Red Head Bahia") – Peaceful South American Cichlid for Sale

The Red Head Bahia Eartheater (Geophagus sp. "Red Head Bahia") is a stunning South American cichlid named for its brilliant red-orange head and shimmering blue-green body.
