Aulonocara stuartgranti “Usisya” is one of Lake Malawi’s most stunning peacock cichlids, admired for its brilliant coloration, calm temperament, and striking appearance. Males feature an electric blue body with golden-yellow accents on the fins and face, while females display softer beige and light blue tones, creating a beautiful visual contrast that enhances any aquarium.

Usisya is known for being relatively peaceful compared to other Malawi cichlids, making it ideal for community tanks with similarly sized, non-aggressive species. Males may display territorial behavior during breeding, but overall, this species is calm, curious, and interactive, often swimming gracefully through open areas while exploring the tank.
