I got two 5" uaru for free they were in bad shape fin rot bad HITH. I did daily wc fed them good food and made sure they got their veggies. They are now healing up well. These guys are shy at first once they adjust and get to know you they come out and greet you. They take time to warm up to people. The uaru is a smart fish that loves to eat plants or anything green. Mine also go nuts for frozen blood worms. They really need to be kept with a buddy the more the better. I have only 2 and they are always together. Never have I seen cichlids get a long so well. These guys might look dull but they are very smart and really interesting fish. They are a large fish that's good for a community tank.
