Product Description

Apistogramma borellii, commonly known as the Umbrella Dwarf Cichlid, is a beautiful and peaceful South American cichlid admired for its soft pastel coloration, graceful finnage, and calm temperament. Native to slow-moving waters in Paraguay and Brazil, this species is an excellent choice for planted aquariums and peaceful community setups.
