Labidochromis is a genus of fish endemic to Lake Malawi from the family Cichlidae. The genus includes 18 formally described species, and several undescribed species, which include a number of species commonly kept in cichlid aquariums such as L. caeruleus (Electric yellow). This genus can commonly crossbreed so it is recommended to only have one species from this genus.
