12-15 fish should be enough. Problem is finding that many peacocks that don't resemble each other. Maybe add a few smaller haps?

What do you mean don't resemble each other? Is that mean I cannot get a peacock with similar color and patterns?
Okay, What hap should I get?

Btw, How would you know if a peacock cichlid is a female or male? Because my aulonocara's color faded away.

You don't want peacocks that look the same, such as blue face/yellow body. They will see each other as competition and constantly fight. Another example is your fragonblood and strawberry.
