Bumblebee cichlid — size comparison — facts and sources

The bumblebee cichlid has a yellow-ochre body with broad dark brown bands. Colour intensity varies and it darkens markedly in some situations. It inhabits rocky cave surroundings in Lake Malawi.

It eats small invertebrates and is known to remove parasites from large Bagrus meridionalis catfish, approaching the much larger fish’s body directly.
