Heros sp. "Inirida" – Inirida Severum - Rare Wild-Type Severum - Live Fish (Multiple Sizes)
Heros sp. "Inirida" – Rare Wild-Type Severum
The Heros sp. "Inirida" is a stunning and rare wild-type variant of the Severum cichlid, originating from the Inírida River region in Colombia. Known for its natural, earthy coloration with soft golden tones, faint vertical barring, and iridescent highlights, this peaceful South American cichlid brings a touch of the wild Amazon to any freshwater aquarium.
Ideal for hobbyists seeking something beyond the common green or gold Severum, the Inirida variety displays more natural behaviors and a unique, less hybridized appearance. These fish are relatively peaceful for cichlids and do well in community tanks with similar-sized, non-aggressive tankmates.
