Chindongo saulosi (formerly known as Pseudotropheus saulosi) is found in a rocky environment at Taiwanee Reef. In the lake the males of these species can grow to 8 cm, in the aquarium however they can grow taller because of a good feeding. The males can then grow to about 10 cm, females grow to about 8 cm. Chindongo saulosi can behave intolerant against equal males, against other inhabitants they are in general tolerant. You can best keep this species with multiple females and other mbunas in an aquarium with a lot of hiding places. In the lake they are mainly feeding themselves with invertebrates and algae which they find on the rocks. 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. Food rich of algae like spirulina pellets or flakes is very important to them so this should not be missing on their menu.
