Red Shoulder Peacock Cichlids are striking Lake Malawi cichlids known for their metallic blue bodies and bold red-orange shoulder and fin coloration. As one of the more peaceful peacocks, they make excellent additions to African setups with other similarly tempered species. Their color intensifies with age and proper diet.
