About Marlieri
Julidochromis marlieri is a larger, more heavily built member of the Julidochromis genus than J. ornatus, with a striking marbled pattern. Like its relatives it pairs for life and holds a chosen rock territory tenaciously — a confident, characterful rock-dweller for a spacious aquascape.
