💧 Description
The Vieja Bifasciata is a powerful and beautifully patterned Central American cichlid. Juveniles show silver and gold tones with faint bars, while adults develop intense turquoise, red, and bronze coloration. Known for their intelligence and bold personality, these fish become true showpieces in larger aquariums.
Tank-raised on our licensed Florida aquaculture farm, each fish is healthy, hardy, and fully acclimated for aquarium life.

Whether you keep Central American cichlid species in a large freshwater aquarium, this American cichlid makes a stunning show fish. Ideal for aggressive community setups with other large cichlid species; our tank-raised, farm-bred stock from a Florida aquaculture facility adapts quickly to home aquariums. Great for keepers of Vieja, Amphilophus, Parachromis, and other New World cichlid species looking for color, personality, and hardy aquarium fish from Tilapia Store.
