- My Top 10 Favorite Peacock Cichlids! We have a wide variety of cichlids, from African to American cichlids, and in today's video, I compiled a list of my current favorite peacock cichlids from Lake Malawi.
- African Cichlid Playlist: • All About African Cich...
We love all of our fish that we keep, but some definitely standout due to their color or personalities. This list is ever-changing, but we think this is a solid top 10!

@@CichlidBros Hi please can you help me how many fx6’s should I put in a 7ft by 2 ft by 2 ft tank the tank will consist of about 8 large fish.
@@Predatorfishaddict I would recommend 2 if you’re going to have a heavy bioload
@@CichlidBros ok thanks so much for the advice
First,will comment after watching
Beautiful cichlids, they look very happy. Great vids
Thank you!
Your videos actually helped me get my own, currently have 3 and they are already thriving, peacocks are definitely my new favorite fish
Awesome, love to hear it!
Looking forward to the new tank additions. 😀

Kudos To You My Friend, Your African Cichlids Look Awesome. I Just Setup My 150 Gallon Bow Front Aquarium. I Went From South American Cichlids Back to African Cichlids. My Large Oscar's we're Tearing Up My Decor in the Tank. But Your Tank's Always Look Great. Thank's For Sharing.
I love you brothers and how wonderful you keep so many types of fish.
Thank you!
The Benga Sunshine looks awesome too!
beautiful fish... that flametail 🔥 🔥 🤩!!!!
Awesome choices and would love to have a peacock cichlid tank that's around 400 gallons!
Thank you! That would be awesome
@@CichlidBros yes but unfortunately I live in a apartment 😢
Beautiful choices, I’m trying to find a LEMON JAKE about 4” male of course

Thanks for watching!
Great video. I am missing 1, 2 and 7. I had opportunity to buy flame tail but it was 75, most of my fish are in between $5-35.
Gorgeous
appreciate on this
aulonocara in general are super vibrant
Do you have any recommendations for buying peacocks online? Love this video.
Hi please can you help me how many fx6’s should I put in a 7ft by 2 ft by 2 ft tank the tank will consist of about 8 large fish.
They looks awesome!
How many are in your 75 gal?
Nice cichlids bro's beautiful tanks but I had two peacock cichlids before with my oscar and my beat they ass but they got awesome colors 👍🏼👍🏼❤❤
Would the red jewels mix better with a peacock are mubna tank?
Which ones and how many do you recommend for a 55g tank?
The lemon Jake is about the only peacock I haven't had...what's the temperament? I found my red Jake n otter point Jake could be quite aggressive...I found peacocks are very different in temperament ...my sulfer head was very calm same w my sunshine as my reagel blues n red shoulder n German red peacocks were mean.
I have 2 ob peacocks and 3 kenyi cichlids in a 25 gallon medium planted tank
I have a 90 gal peacock tank with A few mbuna I would love to have more types but my local/fav shop gets what they get and other shops have their moments also I tried to purchase online but not too happy with Results but may try again
My faver is kadangoo red fine
Looking good Troy. Question I saw a small catfish in your video I couldn't make it out in the video what type of catfish is that? And how large does it get?
Thanks! I have two Synodontis petricola in there. About 5 years old and ~5 inches
Great video! How many peacocks would you suggest in a 75 gallon?
Your mother
You should get a marine light
Hey can you make a video on how to identify male and female peacocks as well as breeding info. Thanks!
Coming in a little late trying to add some red into my tank which peacock would you say gets there most vibrant red I’m so picky most of them say red but end up being orange
Dragonblood
hi, they connive with koi fish?
how big is your ngara flametail now? I also have 1, its 7months now in my tank but it seems it is now growing more than 4inches. but it has great color.
Mine is about 4.5-5 inches currently
Love the video. i have a 75, too, and I'm in the process of getting all my peacocks. I have a lawanda,otter point, lemon,bi-color, flame tail, and german red. I have a red shoulder he's hugh but he lives alone in his own tank because he's a killer. He literally has killed three fish, but he's too beautiful and large to get rid of. I also have other peacocks in my 125. I want to keep some color in that tank with the haps. I right now have ten tanks devoted to what else african chiclids. It was your peacock tank that inspired me. Later bro love your videos. What kind of rock is that looks like tan elephant rock.
I have two OB peacocks one pinkish with dark spots, and other is pinkish-red with dark spots, are they rare for real?😂I wish I could share them somehow to get some information!! Thank you anyway you helped me a lot thank you 💜 💜 ✨ ✨
I'm wanting to do a 120 gallon peacock tank. What would you recommend ?
I’d do all males, and a variety of different species
Question
2:46- does the OB’s EVER appear naturally? I’ve seen them, and to me they stick out in a negative way, they don’t look natural like the others, but if they did naturally rarely occur that would be super cool like a golden rainbow trout or something
Yes they do appear naturally. OBs are a mixture of Mbuna and Peacocks.
How many peacocks can i keep in a 60 gallon aquarium?
I love OB peacocks but my gosh, u can get some real nutjobs from them. loool the ones with sharp colours are stunning!!!
Surprised you didn't include electric blue hap!
Not a peacock
I have 40 gallon breeder, what types and how many do you suggest?
I wouldn’t recommend any peacocks in a 40 gallon long term. There are some mbuna species that could work tho
Impressive malawis, but they have enough spots to hide? Or don't Aulonocaras need any hiding places?
Thanks. It’s actually the opposite for peacocks, they need open water
Does (peacock bass) count??
Haha not for this one
What type of feed using for this cichlids.
Mention the name .....
- Xtreme Big Fella Pellets - geni.us/9Cra
- Xtreme Nice Pellets - geni.us/6ADcc
I love my guys four colorful boys I have the ones that are blue with black stripe and fat cheeks
Where can I purchase them What’s the name of the web site.
Snake River Cichlids is where I bought some of my fish. Check them out.
Dont own any African cichlids except red jewel and Polleni/starry night cichlid they not mouth brooders but enjoy the video
