Also called the Malawi Blue Dolphin or simply the Moorii, the Blue Dolphin Cichlid is endemic to Lake Malawi. These fish are widely distributed throughout the lake but are typically found in shallow waters where the substrate is sandy. Blue Dolphin Cichlids range in color from silvery blue to turquoise and are easily identified by the large hump on their foreheads. This hump has earned this species the additional nickname Humphead Cichlid. Blue Dolphin Cichlids are the sole species in the genus Cyrtocara and they are one of the larger species of Cichlid found in Lake Malawi.
