Exochochromis anagenys is found everywhere in Lake Malawi, mainly in rocky environments and in intermediate zone`s from rocks to sand. In the northern half of the Lake the females and unterritorial males of this species are coloured yellow, in the southern half of the Lake is living a silver-coloured variant. In the lake the males of these species can grow to about 30 cm, females stay smaller, they grow to about 25 cm. Exochochromis anagenys is a real predator. Young fish belong to his favourite meal. You can best keep this species with multiple females and other big species in a large tank. We are dealing here with a species which likes eating fish, so we'll regularly have to offer him such kind of food like living small fish, mysis, krill,artemia, shrimpmix and they eat a lot of young fish when we keep them with mbuna.
