The poor man's tropheus (''Hypsophrys nematopus'', formerly ''Neetroplus nematopus'') is a species of fish in the family Cichlidae. It was formerly the only species in the genus ''Neetroplus'', but in 2007 was reclassified into the genus ''Hypsophrys''. It is a small-medium sized cichlid growing to a length of 12 cm. It occurs in Central America in Lake Xiloá, Lake Managua, Lake Masaya and Lake Nicaragua and in riverine habitats on the Atlantic coasts of Costa Rica and Nicaragua. Like most Central American cichlids the species is commonly found in hard, alkaline (pH 7.5) water. Its diet consists of algae and plant material which it scrapes from rocks and other hard surfaces in a fashion similar to algal grazing cichlids of Lake Malawi, Africa. Some populations are reportedly involved in cleaning other fish of parasites. Like all cichlids, brood care is highly developed with both parents involved in fry raising. Colouration changes dramatically (see pictures) while breeding. ==External links==
