Name: Red Pearl Geophagus
Max Size: Up to 8 inches
Water Parameters: pH 6.5-7.5, temperature 75-82Β°F, hardness 5-15 dGH
Diet: Omnivorous β enjoys a varied diet including high quality pellets, flakes, and live or frozen foods such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and small crustaceans. Occasional vegetable matter like blanched spinach or spirulina is also beneficial.
Temperament: Generally peaceful but can be mildly territorial, especially during breeding. Suitable for community tanks with other peaceful to moderately assertive cichlids.
Tank Setup: Provide a spacious aquarium (minimum 55 gallons) with a soft, sandy substrate for their natural sand-sifting behavior. Include rocks, driftwood, and caves for hiding spots. Good filtration and regular water changes are essential to maintain stable water quality.
Compatibility: Red Pearl Geophagus can cohabitate with other similarly sized, non-aggressive fish. Avoid housing with very small species that could be harassed or overly aggressive fish that may intimidate them.
Behavior: Active bottom dwellers known for their constant sand-sifting. They use their mouths to filter food from the substrate, a characteristic trait of the Geophagus genus. Males may exhibit more intense coloration and slight territorial behavior during spawning.
Fun Fact: The name βRed Pearl Geophagusβ refers to the vibrant red and pearlescent hues along their bodies and fins. These striking colors, combined with their peaceful nature and fascinating feeding habits, make them a favorite among cichlid enthusiasts.
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iβve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
