Folks,

Just want to share with you my Steatocranus Casuarius aka "Buffalo Cichlid" videos
Let me know what you think.

A brief info about this beautiful cichlid:
The Buffalo Head Cichlid is also known as the Lionhead or Blockhead Cichlid, and originates within the Congo River basin, Africa. They inhabit the swift waters of the Congo River and have developed a very "jerky" style of swimming which is similar to a goby. The Buffalo Head is a peaceful cichlid that will attain a maximum size of about 4 inches. They are camouflaged in black, blue, gray and tan colors and the male of this species will attain a large hump on the head with age.
