I've always been a big fan of the malawi peacocks and decided to start up a display tank and is now my pride and joy!
I know I've got the few odd balls (which I'm going to part with) to make my tank 100% all male peacock. I'm getting there slowly, but surely!
Here's some pictures of the majority of my fish I have in the tank, mind the weird pictures sizing I had difficulties uploading them because they were too big to upload. I only used my iPhone camera, I know it's not the best shots.
I hope you enjoy and appreciate the fish as much as I do.
I'll try and get a video and some full tank pictures soon 

Let me know which fish is your favourite

[Redevilz]

WOW!!!!!

That benga is absolutely stunning. Very nice fish

[abc123]

thanks guys, I'll try and work on capturing a cool video next!!

[malawiman85]

That electric blue is quite... umm, blue, very blue.

[abc123]

In a bad or good way? My lighting system makes the peacocks colours enhanced

[malawiman85]

Well good, looks .........(insert superlative of your choice), but it certainly looks bluer than than your average electric blue. I figured the lighting might be showing the colour more so. Id love to see a pic of it under normal lighting, not to be critical or anything, I just reckon he looks great.

very nice, love the red dragonblood.

[benno87]

Eb gets my vote, hes a stunner great tank
