Guianacara dacrya is a high-backed, medium-sized cichlid (12-15 cm). They can be considered peaceful and as cave breeders, they do not dig excessively. Plant food is not on their menu. Ideal cichlids for larger community aquariums.

Guianacara dacrya is a member of the subgenus Guianacara, and is distinguished from other members of this subgenus in having a dark stripe below the eye that fades across the cheek, but remains dark as it approaches the throat.
Guianacara dacrya further differs from congeners in the presence of white spots on the spiny portion of the dorsal fin, the position of the midlateral spot, and the presence of filaments on the dorsal, anal and in rare cases the caudal fin, and other details of the colour pattern.
