Description
Remarks: Copadichromis azureus are rather peaceful Haps compared to others. They prefer to swim in the open water column, so a tank with plenty of swimming space is required. You will be rewarded with a stunning, shining blue fish that pictures simply cannot capture. The heads have a hint of green in them compared to the rest of the body. Females are gray with three black spots typical of Copadichromis.
