Description
German Ruby Red Peacock - 3-4" Male. Remarks : Ruby Reds are a line-bred variety of Aulonocara sp. Maleri, which are normally yellow. They exhibit red scales with a blue sheen underneath. The amount of red will vary depending on dominance, diet, and mood. For brighter, more intense reds, we recommend color-enhancing flakes or extra meals of brine shrimp and other invertebrates that help bring out their color, as well as bright lighting and plenty of females. Pictured, you will see the German strain. One male is in our photo tank with dark lighting and no tankmates. His colors are very deep. You will also find a photo of a male in a breeder tank with brighter lighting, a blue background, and 7 females to keep him company. His colors are much lighter and vibrant. Both are beautiful, but they show the varied nature of Peacocks a. Source: Imperial Tropicals live fish catalogue.
