Mylochromis sp."sphaerodon nkhomo" is living in reasonable shallow waters, in sandy environments. You can only find this species near Nkhomo Reef in the southern part of the lake. In the lake the males of these species can grow to 18 cm, in the aquarium however they can grow a little taller because of a good feeding. The males can then grow to about 20 cm, females grow to about 16 cm. Mylochromis sp."sphaerodon nkhomo" is probably living on snails, which are living in the sand. In the aquarium they are comfortable with any food. They take everything they get offered, like spirulina pellets, mysis, artemia, cyclops and shrimp-peas mix. You can best keep this species with multiple females and other big species in a large tank with a lot of swimming space.
