Hi, Can anyone help to identify what type of african cichlids are? It looks like the white and spotted ones are hybrid peacock, but does the black one with stripes look to be a pure peacock of some type?

The one on the left im not sure if thats a peacock or not...a better pic? The one on the right appears to be a FEMALE peacock of some sort. It is hard to tell females apart from species bc there is not much to go by. They are a dull color just like that in the pic..

yeah, the black ones are pretty dull. They don't appear to have much color right now.

Some sort of peacock....not sure.. Might be a hybrid might be something I have never seen. There is sooooo many speices out there. Might be an OB Peacock....Which is a type of hybrid...sorta confusing.

The left one is an OB peacock (line bred hybrid). The dark one is a female/juvenile peacock-more than likely Aul. stuartgranti of some sort. They tend to be darker than others.

I believe that Fishman76092 is correct. The dull brown color Peacock resembles a female Ngara Flametail.
