Pseudotropheus sp."perspicax hara" is living in a rocky environment in the neighbourhood of Hara Village near Gallireya Reef. In the lake the males of these species can grow to 10 cm, in the aquarium however they can grow a little taller because of a good feeding. The males can then grow to about 11 cm, females grow to about 8 cm. Pseudotropheus sp."perspicax hara" is a reasonably peaceful cichlid, mutual and against other species they are very tolerant. You can best keep this species with multiple females and a lot of hiding places in the aquarium, with other not too agressive mbuna. In the lake they are mainly feeding themselves with invertebrates and algae which they find on the rocks. In the aquarium they are comfortable with any food. They take everything they get offered, like spirulina pellets, mysis, artemia, cyclops and shrimp-peas mix. Food rich of algae like spirulina pellets or flakes is very important to them so this should not be missing on their menu.
