Particolor OB Peacock
$21.70 – $57.75
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.
