The Brichardi is one of the more beautiful and elegant cichlids available to fresh water fish enthusiasts. Brichardi's beauty doesn't come from amazing colors like other cichlids but rather from its long filaments and its fairy-like movement. The Brichardi is a beautiful fish whose base color is tan, with small yellow scales near the start of the tail. The tail, dorsal and anal fins are tan and are fringed with a blue and white edge extending along the elongated tips of the tail fin, a black bar runs from the eye back to the gill cover. A bright gold spot is located just above the bar. This cichlid was named after Pierre Brichard, Pierre was one of the trailblazers who paved the way for exporting these fabulous fishes from Lake Tanganyikan.
