Pseudotropheus saulosi

Chindongo saulosi (Konings, 1990) Pseudotropheus saulosi is a species of cichlid endemic to Lake Malawi in East Africa, where it lives in areas with rocky substrates.

[2] It is classified as a dwarf-mbuna and was first described by Ad Konings in 1990, who gave it the specific name saulosi in honour of Saulos Mwale who caught over 3,000 specimens in a single day on the expedition which collected the type.

[2] The fish are born yellow but as they reach maturity males turn blue with several vertical black bars.

The female holds the eggs in her mouth until the fry are able to swim.

[4] The fish is Critically Endangered in the wild,[1] and efforts are currently under way to re-stock Taiwan Reef with captive bred individuals.
