Description: Altolamprologus compressiceps "Sumbu Shellie" are known for their blueish body and fin coloration and distinctive striping that develops as they grow. They are African Cichlids that are native to Lake Tanganyika and need a pH of at leat 8.2. These guys only get to about 5 inches when fully grown, but they tend to do well with larger African Cichlids (such as Mbunas and Peacocks), as well as other Tangnyikan Cichlids.
