Melanochromis auratus, a fish that is also commonly known as the golden cichlid or golden mbuna.
The Melanochromis auratus is native to Lake Malawi in the tropics of Africa and is not found in the wild elsewhere. It will grow to be approximately four inches long. Its body is long and thin, and it is brilliantly colored, which makes it a popular addition to aquariums. The color is most often striped; females are typically black and gold, while males are usually blue and black. The Melanochromis auratus is a very aggressive and territorial fish, both toward other fish and toward members of its own species.
