Convict cichlids are serially monogamous, so pair bonds may form first before they establish a territory together, or the male and female may each obtain a territory before pairing with each other. [39] Because the convict cichlids are also substrate-brooding, this territory will include a breeding site for the deposition of eggs. [40]
The convict cichlid has sometimes been placed within the genus Cryptoheros as well, but is now considered a member of the genus Amatitlania. [3] [4] Several other species such as Amatitlania septemfasciata and Amatitlania sajica had also once been included within Cryptoheros. [2] FishBase currently recognizes four species in this genus: [1]
Amatitlania coatepeque, the Lago Coatepeque convict cichlid, is a freshwater fish species endemic to El Salvador. [1] The species was first identified in 1924 and takes its name from Lake Coatepeque in the interior highlands of western El Salvador.
Amatitlania is a genus of cichlid fishes native to freshwater habitats in Central America from El Salvador and Guatemala to Panama.They are fairly small cichlids, typically reaching up to 6.4–10 cm (2.5–4 in) in standard length depending on exact species, [1] although captives may grow larger.
There are two families within the Cichliformes; the convict blennies are a small family consisting of a single genus and two species, while the cichlids are one of the largest vertebrate families with over 202 genera and more than 1700 species. It is molecular data which placed the two seemingly dissimilar families in the same taxon.
Cichlids span a wide range of body sizes, from species as small as 2.5 cm (1 in) in length (e.g., female Neolamprologus multifasciatus) to much larger species approaching 1 m (3 ft) in length (Boulengerochromis and Cichla).

The convict julie (Julidochromis regani) is a cichlid species in the subfamily Pseudocrenilabrinae family endemic to Lake Tanganyika. Hence it is found in Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, and Zambia. The fish is named after Charles Tate Regan. [2] This species is closely related to Julidochromis marlieri.
