I was told when I bought this from Gerber in Ohio that these were Red Tapajo. Every picture I have found of young Tapajos don't look like these. I have never seen them sift sand yet. So are they or are they not?
A satellite lake usually refers to a small lake or swamp that is very close by and attached to a larger lake. Lake Edward is over 230 miles from lake Victoria and really doesn't have a lot to do with lake Victoria. Neither lake Edward nor the Kazinga channel are part of the Victoria basin. https://www.researchgate.net/figure...ent-area-including-major-towns_fig1_262371637 http://atlas.nilebasin.org/treatise/the-lake-victoria-sub-basin/ A. aeneoclor, like many Haplochromine cichlids, are however, often referred to as Victorian cichlids in the aquarium hobby, as part of a general grouping.
