TomO Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I bought these five fish from a big box store. They were in a mixed peacock tank. Could you please ID them for me? They are all about 1.5”. For size comparison the blue one is next to a cherry barb. The albino has a lot of red dots that didn’t show in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cys aquatics Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 hello, The blue one next to the cherry barb is an electric blue African chiclid. the albino one is a albino peacock chiclid. The tan one looks like a bumble bee chiclid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomO Posted April 17, 2021 Author Share Posted April 17, 2021 I was actually looking for specific names. Like the blue one looks like a fire line mloto, but I’m not sure. Or the albino looks like an albino dragon blood. I guess time will tell. It just sucks that I’ve invested so much money in plants and then dropped in African peacocks. I was looking for something to cohabitate with my aggressive barbs. (They killed a blood parrot.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalmedByFish Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Sorry to not have answers, but that pink one is gorgeous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomO Posted April 17, 2021 Author Share Posted April 17, 2021 I think it’s an albino dragon blood, but they’re so small it’s hard to know for sure. I wish I hadn’t put them in my planted 75, but I wanted a showpiece fish for my barb tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
