Temperament
Albino Super Red Peacocks are moderately aggressive, especially males during breeding. They are territorial but can coexist peacefully with compatible tank mates when given adequate space and hiding areas. Males are less aggressive than many other Malawi cichlids, making them suitable for mixed cichlid communities.
Tank Mates
Pair with other similarly-sized African cichlids such as haplochromis, aulonocara females, or non-aggressive mbuna. Avoid smaller fish that may be viewed as prey. Provide rock formations and caves to establish territories and reduce aggression.
Diet
Feed high-quality cichlid pellets, occasional live or frozen foods such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia. Supplement with vegetable matter to support digestive health. Feed once or twice daily, offering only what they can consume in 2–3 minutes.
This magnificent fish will make a beautiful and rewarding addition to your aquarium, bringing color, character, and natural beauty to your aquatic environment.
