**Name:** OB Peacock Cichlid
**Max Size:** OB Peacock Cichlids typically grow to around 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 centimeters) in length.
**Water Parameters:** They prefer slightly alkaline water conditions with a pH range of 7.5 to 8.5 and a water temperature of 75-82Β°F (24-28Β°C).
**Diet:** OB Peacock Cichlids are omnivorous. Their diet should consist of high-quality cichlid pellets or flakes supplemented with live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms, and occasionally some vegetable matter.
**Temperament:** They are generally peaceful among other cichlid species, although males can become territorial, especially during breeding. Keeping them in a spacious tank with plenty of hiding spots can help reduce aggression.
**Tank Setup:** Provide an aquarium with plenty of rocks, caves, and hiding places. They appreciate sandy substrate and open swimming areas. A well-decorated tank with rocks and driftwood can mimic their natural habitat in Lake Malawi.
**Compatibility:** OB Peacock Cichlids can be kept with other African cichlids of similar size and temperament. However, it's important to research and choose tankmates carefully to avoid compatibility issues.
**Behavior:** These cichlids are known for their vibrant colors and interesting behaviors. Males often display their colors to attract females and establish territories. They are active swimmers and benefit from a spacious aquarium.
**Fun Fact:** The name "OB" in OB Peacock Cichlid stands for "Orange Blotched." These cichlids are prized for their striking orange and black coloration, making them a popular choice among cichlid enthusiasts.
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iβve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
