[BassinAssassin76]

I was wondering if anyone has this species of peacock bass
I was surfing and came across this photo I hope I can get it to load I haven't posted a pic before
they refered to it as Cichla Nigrolineatus otherwise known as Royal peacock bass

I know it doesn't have the bright reds and oranges ..... but to me its awesome and would like any info there is on them

no such species that exists now. that was ancient name they had that is no longer a valid specie. Royal peacock bass is a commonly reffered name used by locals. otherwise the picture you have provided is a Cichla intermedia.
