Red Shoulder Severums

Red Shoulder Severums are striking cichlids prized for their distinctive coloration and engaging personalities. These medium-sized fish display vibrant red markings across their shoulders and gill plates, intensifying during breeding season. Hardy and relatively peaceful for cichlids, they thrive in established tanks with plenty of vegetation and hiding spaces. They reach 6-8 inches and prefer slightly acidic to neutral water conditions. Red Shoulders are intelligent feeders that appreciate a varied diet of quality pellets, frozen foods, and occasional live prey. Ideal for experienced aquarists seeking a beautiful, interactive addition to their community setup.
