I have Malawi Peacocks breeding, everywhere 30 at a time, I have tri coloured & pearly blue.
I also have electric Blues but not mated as yet!
I also have fish called (solucii) I can't find anything about them & they are breeding also but I don't know how to spell their name?
Have around a dozen of these!
Can anyone help with their name or how to spell it?
I've seperated the males & the females at present as just won't stop breeding!
My pet shop will only pay $3.00 per fish for these tricoloured peacocks at 7 to 8 cm's. Does this sound right?
I am 15 years of age & am helped by my nanna with all of this!
Hope some of you can help me out?
Cheers Royley.

Welcome to the AC. If you dont want the babies (fry) I would sell them. If they breed that much you could make quite a profit off of them. As for names, I dont specilize in Mawalis I'm more mbuna.

Hi Royley. Welcome to AC...:ssmile:
This is not my area of expertise but I'm sure someone will come along that can give you some suggestions. Good luck!

Welcome to AC bro!!
We need a pic or something more to go on to help you with fish name. Pet stores mark stuff up about 2/3 so look at what they sell them for after they buy from you and that can help you decide on what they should be paying you. If they gave you 3 bucks then they should sell for 9.00 if they selling them for more and you arent happy about it then tell them u want more...lol
also you can sell fish on [Only Registered Users Can See Links.] buyer usually pays shipping.

Google Saulosi and see if that's what you have...:ssmile:

Hi Royley, I think the fish you have may be Pseudotropheus saulosi
the males are light blue with dark blue stripes and dark blue down
the dorsal fin, females are yellow/orange.
They are a very popular fish and you should have no probs selling
any fry on.
