Green Terror

My favorite cichlid !!

Green Terror is now Andinoacara stalsbergi.

Named in honour of ALF STALSBERG (Tjodalyng, Norway), the collector of the holotype, in recognition of his longstanding commitment to increase the knowledge about cichlid fishes.

I usually collected them by myself in Lurin river around 2005; and at that time I found them abundantly in all sizes.
Regretfully this river is now awfully contaminated so Green Terror population is decreasing dramatically in the low part of this river.

I am enclosing some links of relevant documents related to this species :
