Astatheros rostratus (Honduran Red Point Cichlid)

Astatheros rostratus, known as the Honduran Red Point Cichlid or Carate, is a robust Central American cichlid with a silver-blue to grey body, developing striking orange/red colors, especially in males during breeding, and features a distinct black spot near the tail; it's a substrate-digging, omnivorous, and potentially territorial fish that needs large tanks with sand and rocks, avoiding plants due to its digging habit.
