The Golden Eye Dwarf Cichlid (Nannacara anomala) is a small, attractive South American cichlid known for its shimmering blue-green body and distinctive golden eye. This species is popular among aquarists for its manageable size, interesting behaviour, and suitability for well-planted aquariums.

Males display vibrant metallic colours, particularly when mature or during breeding displays, while females develop deeper coloration and strong protective instincts when guarding eggs. Despite being a cichlid, the Golden Eye Dwarf Cichlid is generally peaceful when kept with suitable tank mates and enough space.

This species is a good choice for aquarists interested in dwarf cichlids that exhibit natural behaviours such as territorial displays, spawning, and parental care.

Physical Characteristics:

  • Adult Size: 6–8 cm
  • Body Shape: Compact, laterally compressed cichlid body
  • Colouration: Males display iridescent blue-green scales with a metallic sheen and distinctive golden eyes. Females are darker with more subdued coloration but can develop stronger markings during breeding.
  • Sexual Dimorphism: Males are larger and more colourful with extended finnage, while females are smaller and often darker in colour.
  • Lifespan: 5–7 years

Behaviour & Temperament:

  • Temperament: Generally peaceful but territorial during breeding
  • Swimming Level: Lower to mid levels
  • Social Behaviour: Best kept as a pair or single specimen in community aquariums
  • Recommended Group Size: Single fish or bonded pair
  • Golden Eye Dwarf Cichlids are relatively calm for a cichlid species and spend much of their time exploring the lower areas of the aquarium. They can become protective of territory when spawning.

Aquarium Requirements:

  • Minimum Tank Size: 60 litres
  • Water Temperature: 23–28°C
  • pH Range: 6.0–7.5
  • Water Hardness: 2–12 dGH
  • Water Flow: Gentle to moderate
  • Substrate: Sand or fine gravel
  • Aquascape: Planted aquarium with driftwood, caves, and shaded areas for hiding
  • Lighting: Low to moderate

Feeding:

Golden Eye Dwarf Cichlids are omnivores and accept a varied diet:

  • High-quality micro pellets or cichlid pellets

  • Frozen foods such as bloodworms and brine shrimp

  • Live foods including daphnia or mosquito larvae

  • Occasional vegetable-based foods

Feed small amounts once or twice daily.

Compatibility:

Suitable Tank Mates:

  • Small tetras

  • Rasboras

  • Corydoras catfish

  • Dwarf gouramis

  • Peaceful community fish

Avoid Housing With:

  • Large aggressive cichlids

  • Highly territorial fish

  • Fin-nipping species

Breeding:

Spawning Type: Cave spawner

Breeding Difficulty: Moderate

Breeding Notes:

  • Females typically lay eggs inside caves or sheltered areas

  • The female guards eggs and fry closely

  • Males defend the surrounding territory during spawning

Special Considerations:

Golden Eye Dwarf Cichlids benefit from a well-structured aquarium with plenty of hiding spaces and stable water conditions. Providing caves or dense plants helps reduce stress and encourages natural breeding behaviour.

Works For Desired Use
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-136‘’W-Round Pad
I recently purchased the Room Divider 6FT Folding Privacy Screens, 4 Panel Partition Room Dividers, and I must say, it has transformed the way I use my living space. The four-panel design is both elegant and functional, providing instant privacy without feeling bulky or overwhelming in my room. Setting it up was a breeze; the folding mechanism is smooth, allowing me to adjust the configuration as needed—straight, angled, or zigzag. I particularly appreciate the sturdy build; the panels feel solid yet lightweight, making it easy to move around when I want to reconfigure my space. Aesthetically, it’s a great addition. The neutral finish blends well with my décor, and the simple design doesn’t draw too much attention while still offering a sense of separation. It’s perfect for creating a temporary office corner, dividing a studio apartment, or even using it as a backdrop for online meetings. If I had to point out a minor downside, it would be that the divider isn’t completely soundproof—so conversations can still carry through—but for visual privacy and space management, it’s excellent. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied and would recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile and stylish room divider.

True to size & Use a Drill
Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102‘’-Round Pad, Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102‘’-Round Pad
Love this! Works perfectly for where I wanted it. I did measure my room incorrectly and thought it would be smaller, thankfully it’s not and thankfully it’s not bigger than the room itself. I did like how the whole thing was move-able but it was a bit annoying so I just added extra clips to the left of the middle one and unscrewed the right of the middle at the bottom so it opens like a door, this did make it a bit flimsy but duck taping it to the wall as anchor it works. 100% recommend, but do suggest a drill and a second set of hands to put it together, due to its size it can be a bit difficult to maneuver putting together yourself. Also if you have a clingy cat like I do, and think this will help keep them out, no, my cat who is very large can manage to squeeze underneath it.

waste of money
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-136‘’W-Round Pad
This is a total waste of money. Its only going to free stand if you arent moving it. If you are planning on dividing a room, and then folding these for space and then dividing the room again, itll last a few days. The poles kept coming off of the screws that holds the fabric on the poles together. Was fixing this EVERY DAY. Finally got tired of doing this and just threw it out. Lot of money spent on garbage. Get a sheet room divider, or something that isnt cheaply made. Was simply making an office type space in a bedroom, to seperate the two areas for work, and folding it kept making the poles come off those twisted screws. just not worth it.
