Placidochromis

Bei der Gattung der Placidochromis hat sich in den letzten Jahren mit der Gattung der Lethrinops am meisten getan. Viele Arten wurden von Hanssens im Jahr 2004 neu beschrieben. Arten wie Placidochromis sp. "phenochilus gisseli", der Placidochromis sp. "phenochilus tanzania" oder auch der Placidochromis phenochilus mit der Standortvariante Mdoka hielt Einzug in die Aquaristik. Um den Letzt genannten mal genauer zu betrachten, wo hat man schon Weibchen im freischwimmenden Bereich, die solch eine Farbe zeigen? Placidochromis phenochilus scheint aufgrund seiner Färbung ein naher Verwandter vom Placidochromis elektra zu sein, was gerade bei Jungtieren extrem auffällt. Die verschiedensten Arten dieser Gattung leben meist in der Übergangszone zum Sandbereich.
