Creamsicle peacock, Aulonocara nyassae, Aulonocara sp.
Description: Very similar to the dragon blood peacock, but with undertones of blue and pearl hues. Peacock cichlids are native to Lake Malawi, and are classified as generally semi-aggressive cichlids. They are a more solitary fish, so it is best to keep them in small harems and avoid overly aggressive tank mates.
