Rubin, Ruby, Rubescent Peacock all the same, it is a selectively line bred fish & is not native to Malawi. It derives from a native like the marleri (sunshine type) I think they came from the German red strain.
nice fish

never saw that one before the fire fish dragon seems lighter in the blue and on the head the blue extends to the dorsil on mine.

thanx i found it when i was looking for an orange shoulder....it was brown and 1.5" with a small hint of color only seen if you looked very close..i saw the potential and got it. it turn out great. it came to the lfs in a mixed batch of peacocks.
it could be hybrid since it most likely came from asia. the asst stuff is a mish mash of everything . nice looking fish though.
It is a ruby red as stated before, not a dragon's blood, not a firefish, not a regular sunshine. It could be a hybrid of a ruby red (german red) and another peacock since it came from mixed tank I would not use for breeding purpose.
