Yes, with other African peacocks and haplochromine species. Severums require different water chemistry and habitat.

Generally speaking, peaceful.
Would you keep it itslef or in pairs??
Neither. One or two males and several females. They are harem breeders. Only keep one of several species if you are doing an all male tank.
All info would be great !11 tanks, 5.5g up to 125g(2). Mbuna, Haps, Peacocks, Tangs, wild caught to tank raised!

I would revise that article to say that Malawi cichlids are generally divided into 3 groups, not 2. They would be Mbuna, Peacocks, and Haplochromine species. The latter vary much greater in size and temperament than Peacocks, including some truly large and predatory types.
