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. Native to rivers in the Bahia region of Brazil, this species is a member of the “eartheater” group—fish that sift sand through their gills to find food.

Known for its peaceful temperament and vibrant coloration, the Red Head Bahia is ideal for South American community tanks with other non-aggressive fish. Its graceful swimming and constant sand-sifting activity make it both beautiful and fascinating to watch.
