The spangled cichlid (Acaronia vultuosa) is a species of cichlid found throughout the Orinoco Basin, including the Casiquiare, Inírida River, and the Vichada River, as well as the Rio Negro. This species can reach a length of 12 centimetres (4.7 in) TL. It inhabits the waters close to the bank that are rich in vegetation, and preys on smaller fish.[1]
