The ultimate centerpiece fish, Geophagus altifrons are known for their intense vertical banding coloration of, gold-orange to blue-green, iridescent scales on their flanks. The most important item of decor in a tank for this species is a soft, sandy substrate so the fish can browse for food naturally. They are eartheaters, benthophagous by nature, feeding by taking mouthfuls of sand and sifting for edible items and expelling the remaining material via their gill openings and mouth.
Surprisingly peaceful, they will not predate on fish larger than a few millimeters in length and so make good tank mates. A gregarious fish, they tend to exist in small schools, especially as juveniles.
