I know its a peacock... I actually bought 2, the pictures dont do them justice. They are both iridescent purple and pink mostly, with bits of orange, red, and blue. I could only get a passible photo of the one, the other one has more orange and purple. Also that is my 75 gal rift tank, in progress... They are quite literally the most beautiful africans Ive ever seen, every bit of their bodies are bright, colorful, and shiny, the pictures are pretty terrible compared to in-person.. Thanks in advance...

Line bred color morph, depending on where you are, and what you local (line) breeder may be trying to achieve as far as color combination.
Below similar version, just a line with more or less orange and blue.
