How can one tell the difference between Ruby Reds, German Reds and Sunshine Peacocks? I have two of something that the LFS labeled Sunshine Peacocks, but it really looks like it could be any of the three

Well, I commented on all of your other posts so I thought I would just round it out and comment here as well. :ROFL:

Unfortunately, I don't have any idea as to what the answer would be.
 
How big are they?
 
Sunshine peacocks are yellow with a blue face and blue near the back caudal fin. German reds I believe are lighter orange than ruby reds

So, sunshine peacocks are the lightest, being yellow...german reds are orange...ruby reds are dark orange/redish

Well that's great feedback. Thanks! My two are blue-faced but dark orange...nearly brown, from the gills back. I bet they are Ruby Reds.
