F2 Electric Blue Fryeri (Sciaenochromis Fryeri)

F2 Electric Blue Fryeri African Cichlid

Scientific Name: Sciaenochromis fryeri
Common Name: Electric Blue Fryeri / Electric Blue Hap

The F2 Electric Blue Fryeri is a stunning Lake Malawi African cichlid prized for the brilliant electric-blue coloration mature males can develop. With its sleek body, metallic blue sheen, and contrasting fin coloration, the Electric Blue Fryeri makes an impressive centerpiece in a larger African cichlid aquarium.

The F2 designation indicates these fish are second-generation offspring from the breeder’s established lineage. As juveniles mature, males typically develop increasingly intense blue coloration, while females generally remain more subdued in color.

Electric Blue Fryeri are active, confident fish and should be housed with appropriately sized African cichlids. They are generally considered semi-aggressive to aggressive, particularly mature males and during breeding.
