i know that these guys are hybrids, but i love their coloration and they are carried by my LFS unlike many of the other colorful malawis. i was just curious what are they best kept with? are they better off with mbuna or peacocks? thank you for any help.
 
Expect them to act as basically any jacobfreibergi. IE keep them with peacocks/haps. And they will tend to be on the slightly aggressive side for peacocks.

Same here. He's in my avatar. The guy is just stellar. Hybrid or not the guy looks fantastic...My Strawberry, another hybrid is right there as well, but the OB is amazing.
