What is pale usisya aulonocara?

Pale usisya aulonocara is a species of cichlid fish native to Lake Malawi in eastern Africa. It is commonly known as the "yellow regal cichlid." This fish has a distinctive yellow color with blue markings along its body and fins. It can grow up to six inches in length and prefers to live in rocky habitat near the shore with plenty of caves and hiding places. Pale usisya aulonocara is an omnivore, feeding on plankton, small crustaceans and insects in the wild, but will also consume algae and vegetable matter in captivity. It is a popular species in the aquarium trade due to its striking coloration and peaceful temperament, making it an ideal addition to a mixed cichlid setup. However, as with all cichlids, it requires a large tank with ample filtration and regular water changes to thrive.
