I believe he means it as, hybridized peacocks (among the 4 different types of peacocks he bought) and hybridized Mbuna (among the many Mbuna he bought)Juxtaroberto;4760942; said:

To the OP: How did the peacocks fare in the mbunas' presence? I've hears mbuna will stress them out. And how were the feeding arrangements, considering that peacocks are piscivores and mbuna are herbivores?
And what would you do with the fry? Bring them to LFS so they would have no idea what species they were? Why? I just can't understand why you would intentionally do this.
i have plenty of hiding places and i guess thats the reason the mbuna dont bother the peacocks that much.... and yes too clarify mbuna with mbuna and peacock with peacock breeding. however this was not planned, just happened. but still excited!
