Introduction:
Red Shoulder Peacock
I started keeping Peacocks (Aulonacara) and Haplochromis type fish about 5-6 years ago. I had been raising angels using RO water previously, but had just suffered through a bout of the angel fish plague. I finally decided I should be keeping fish that liked my natural water conditions rather than jump through hoops to provide water conditions that aren’t coming out of the tap. At that same time, I ran across a Peacock at the LFS that was labeled as a “Red Peacock”. It was beautiful, and I decided to start raising Peacocks even though they were a little bigger than the typical fish I had been keeping and spawning. And as they say, “The rest is history”.
