Any idea what this peacock is?

[TheFanatic]

They charged me for the wrong fish which saved me $5 but I can't remember what the name of this guy is...

Aulonocara jacobfreibergi "Eureka Albino" I think...

 

[johnny_1993]

i agree

 

[malawi haps]

I don't think so the eye is not red like an albino would have . Can you post a better pic of it??

That is what is often called a Strawberry peacock. It is a man made strain. They are nice looking fish.

it does look similar to a aulonocara jacobfreibergi but that solid color would have to be man made.

Huh? Well it is a mix of auloncara... like I said often called a strawberry peacock. It is like an ob peacock, ie man bred/hybrids...

I dont think its a eureka,Probably a strawberry wont know for shure till its bigger

not an albino.

you see these as aulonocara 'sunburst', aulonocara 'red'...other names. It's an aquarium bred colour morph...I think it originated in Germany.

very nice fish though especially when it matures.

well that is what I get for not looking at twice... I did not notice the eye at all...lol
