Mayan Cichlids are colorful, aggressive fish native to Central America but now found in Florida’s freshwater and brackish waters. They have a striking red-orange body with blue-green bars and are known for their territorial behavior. Mayan Cichlids feed on plants, invertebrates, and small fish and are sometimes used as bait to catch larger predators like bass.
