Julidochromis Dickfeldi is a species of fish in the Cichlidae family. It is endemic to Lake Tanganyika in Africa where it is found in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, and Zambia. Also known as the brown julie, it inhabits rocky shorelines in the southwest part of the lake, occuring between Kapampa and Ndole, always occuring in shallow water.

Julidochromis Marlieri is a fun, torpedo-shaped rock-dwelling cichlid from Lake Tanganyika. Members of this genus are affectionately known as "Julies." Julies make a great addition to almost any rift lake setup. They are fairly tolerant of most water conditions and play well with others, with the exception of conspecifics. Julidochromis Marlieri has a truly endearing personality. They are like little remote-control subs. They swim sideways, hang upside down, and move in such deliberate motions. The way they move up and down through the rocks is reminiscent of a little hummingbird. In the wild, Julidochromis Marlieri inhabits the rocky shores of Lake Tanganyika where there are steep to medium drop-offs of 5-30 meters. They spend most of their time in the caves and crevices of these rocks hunting for food or seeking protection. It is also within these rocky crevices that they spawn and lay their eggs. In captivity, Julies are somewhat shy, sticking to the rocks in the back of the tank and only dash out for food if they feel safe doing so. Needless to say, they require lots of rockwork.

Ornatus is latin for ornate, and this fish lives up to the name - it is quite beautiful indeed. Good specimens display rich golden stripes, hence the common name "Golden Julie". One of the interesting characteristics of this fish is that multiple generations of fry can peacefully coexist in the spawning tank.

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. This species is closely related to Julidochromis marlieri. Possibly, a male common ancestor of these two hybridised with some female Telmatochromis ancestor in their evolutionary past.

Julidochromis transcriptus are a slender, almost cylindrical fish, native to Lake Tanganyika in Africa. There are several location variants in the hobby, but I like the "gombi" variety the best. This fish has clear black and white bands with brilliant blue margins to the tail and anal fins. Another common variety has a white belly which I don't find as attractive. This particular fish is probably the smallest of the Julies and males rarely attain a length of 3". It was originally disovered by Mathes in 1959. Julidochromis transcriptus is found from 1 to 10M deep around rocky coasts in the lake.
