Particolor OB Peacock

Description
Particolor OB Peacock is an aquarium strain we developed. Peacocks are derived from one or more of the Aulonocara-type cichlids from Lake Malawi in eastern Africa. We developed this strain from our Blue-OB Peacock strain by selecting for males with multiple colors, not just blue. We continue to select for males displaying multiple colors, primarily orange, yellow, and blue. Males often reach 15cm (6 in.). Females are considerably smaller. Males sport pointed anal and dorsal fins and elongated pelvic fins. They also have a few gold egg-spots on the anal fin. Females are drab mottled fish showing the OB pattern. Females, unlike the males, don’t have pointed fins.

By far my best experience for ordering fish online, and I have ordered a lot of fish!! Prices were great, shipping was next day, and the male is received was the biggest most beautiful fish I have seen. 2 females died during transit, I assume due to the stress. But Charles replied within a hour and took care of it immediately, the male that I received though was 100% healthy and beautiful. I will order from here from now on! Thank you guys!

Taylor,
Thank you for your comments. But, that male will grow much larger and gain even more color as he grows. As to the females dying en route, that happens occasionally. We try to learn from each failure such as that.
