the big DIESELMACK,, has answered this question already.... no need for homework,, here it is.... ( its just a regular name for farm rasied cichla )

"lukanani" correct spelling....is a local general reference for peacock bass in hawaii,Guyana,Sweden,and a few other countries.....it does NOT distinguish species rather is a broad term used just as we use "peacock bass" as a general identifier. There are many other names also depending on the country..ie Venezuela/peru=pavon...brazil=tucunare...also temensis with bars are refered to as "acu" and speckled patterened temensis as "paca". orinocensis=borboleto,mariposa,butterfly. and so on ect...blah blah...there are names for general reference and local names for species depending on the country at hand....so back to the question...the pet store that recieved the peacock bass basically got them from a country that refers to them on their list as lukanani, could be ocellaris..possibly monoculus as both are found and farmed in the areas that refer to peacocks as lukanani .
