Festivus Cichlid

The festivus cichlid, also called simply festivum, comes from Venezuala. Another name for the cichlid is the flag cichlid. These fish were first kept in aquariums by Germans back on 1908. Despite the long history, these fish are wild caught and not often seen in the aquarium trade, though they were once common. Peaceful behavior and the unique body structure and bold angular line across the body makes the cichlid a great addition to the fish tank.

Live Arrival Policy & DOA Information

We guarantee live arrival. This will cover any issues with shipping that might impair the health of the fish.

We do not guarantee fish beyond one week of the day of arrival. Please research the requirements for each fish to ensure a suitable environment, food, and compatible tank mates.Water quality, incompatibility with the fish tank, diet, or other challenges of the hobby are the responsibility of the hobbyist.

A World of Fish is opposed to the gimmick of extremely long guarantees offered by a few online stores and we feel this practice will promote careless fish care. For the good of the hobby we offer lower prices and a reasonable guarantee.

We ship hundreds of boxes each week and our DOA (dead on arrival) record is excellent, but nature will be nature and not all boxes are delivered with perfection.

In the rare event of a loss, please contact our Customer Support Department when the fish arrive. To file a DOA claim, follow the steps below:

1) Upon arrival, please send a photo (less than 5MB) of the lost specimen to: support@lightaquatics.store No videos can be accepted.

2) Please include "DOA", your Order Number in the subject line. (Example DOA #1234). In the body of the email, include your name and item name with quantity of deceased specimens.

Once we receive a valid claim, we will refund you for the value of the fish in full within 5 business days.

*Please note the shipping cost pays for only a portion of the actual FedEx Overnight fee. In order to make overnight shipping a viable service to our hobby we DO NOT refund shipping charges.
