please ID these 2 peacocks.

thanks

Peacock 1

Peacock 2

I can't help you out. But have to say: Peacock's are beautiful fish!

the first one looks like my red shoulders

which there has been some confusion about

but ryan and i have come to the conclusion that theyre Aul.stuartgranti "malari red"

i could be wrong wont be the first time

hehe is the first one, there a Electric Yellow any help? :lol:

i bought the 1st peacock under 'nyassa peacock'. From my understanding, nyassa is another name for lake malawi. so yeah, not entire sure what he is :-?

Hi

I am no expert but the second fish don't look like a peacock! look a bit more like a Electric blue Hap ? But I could be wrong

the first fish will be impossible to id till he shows a bit more colour,the second looks to me a lot like a copadicromis azureus.its the shape of the forehead but that could just be camera angle.

all the nyasses are hybrids

it is similar but has some colouration on the end of the dorsal & around the anal fin which my males do not have at all, females a little but they are much less coloured.

the first pic may be something along the stuartgranti lines.

all the nyasses are hybrids

Aulononcara nyassa was a descrptive term for any number of Aulononcara Sp. Lake Nyassa -the old colonial name for malawi or Nyassaland,. but not necessarily a hybrid. That seems to be a recent label for 'lazy' people.

What ever they are they are 'well/over' fed.

#1- without history pick a number and hope for big wednesday.

#2 -would expect more in the way of utaka spots to be 100% sure of Azureus.

the 2nd fish do have utaka spots when he is a juv

they are over fed cuz these 2 are the greediest! :oops:

i've uploaded another photo, hope this helps

thanks everyone for your help. i appreciate it

Yeah -better that way than skeletons! You have a lovely Kadango male .

This shot- It's a few mths old but a shot of my Azureus male as Juvi

Azureus are notorious as cross breeders- I've found the males to be very subordinate and very unprotective of their females. And from what i've read they are easily rolled by most other Utaka males.

It's a lovely fish but I guess the hard question now is-can you be 100% on what it is?- whatya think?

It is a tough 1, i'm not 100% sure if the 2nd fish is a peacock now. i remembered his dad is quite big, well, bigger that any peacock i've seen.

nice Azureus u got there, firenzenz. i might get one myself when i manage to sell off my mbunas

You have a lovely Kadango male .

thank you, the kadango is from a reputable breeder here.
