Hey Guys,

This is going to sound like a weird request but I'm looking for peacocks or mbuna's that are predominantly purple or green.

The reason behind this is that my finance won't let me get any more cichlids unless they're "pretty". Lame I know but I always like new fish so if you guys can help me out that'd be sweet. So far I haven't found any...
 
Copadichromis sp. mloto "Flourescent" has a greenish metallic face. There is also Lethrinops sp. green face, but I've never seen one in person.

Aulonocara maylandi is a dark purple/blue.

I have seen some Protomelas sp. "Mbenji thick lip" that has a bit of a purple sheen in shows before.

Other than that, not common colors at all from Malawi.
 
Ps Acei are purple/blue with either yellow or white tails. They tend to be dark purple over a dark substrate.
