In nature it follows large sandsifters such as Fossorochromis, waiting to punce on food items unearthed by the larger Cichlids. In Aquarium, it can be difficult to sex Cyrtocara moorii, even at a mature size. Young Cyrtocara moorii are greyish with cross stripes. When they grow up, both the male and female are pale blue with three spots on the flank. The Blue Dolphin is moderately easy to care for as long as the tank is large enough, water is kept clean, and the aquascaping is correct.

蓝海豚（Cyrtocara Moorii）是慈鲷科的一种淡水鱼，也是最受欢迎的马拉维慈鲷之一，性情相对温和。在自然界中，它会跟随大型沙筛鱼（例如Fossorochromis），等待着吞食其他大型慈鲷挖出的食物。在水族箱中，即使成年后，也很难判断蓝海豚的性别。幼鱼呈灰色，带有横纹。成年后，雌雄鱼体色均为淡蓝色，侧腹有三个斑点。只要鱼缸足够大、水质保持清洁，并且水景布置得当，蓝海豚的饲养相当容易。
