The Lwanda Peacock arrived healthy and was well quarantined. It’s a striking fish with unique coloration that stands out in my Lake Malawi setup. I appreciate the care taken in sourcing a specialty form with clear labeling.

This cichlid adds a beautiful touch to my freshwater tank. I’ve read about its uncertain taxonomy, and it’s clear the supplier is cautious with labeling. It’s a great choice for someone interested in rare peacock varieties.
