**Name:** Dragon Blood Peacock Cichlid
**Max Size:** Dragon Blood Peacock Cichlids typically reach a size of around 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 centimeters) in captivity.
**Water Parameters:** These cichlids thrive in water conditions with a pH level ranging from 7.8 to 8.6 and a temperature range of 76-82Β°F (24-28Β°C). These conditions mimic the water parameters of their native habitat in Lake Malawi.
**Diet:** Dragon Blood Peacock Cichlids are omnivorous and primarily feed on high-quality cichlid pellets or flakes. You can enhance their coloration by supplementing their diet with live or frozen foods like brine shrimp, bloodworms, and spirulina-based foods.
**Temperament:** They are relatively peaceful for African cichlids, but males can become territorial, especially during breeding. Providing hiding spots and adequate space in the aquarium can help reduce aggression.
**Tank Setup:** Dragon Blood Peacock Cichlids thrive in tanks with plenty of rocky caves and crevices to create territories and hiding places. They prefer a sandy substrate and feel at home in an aquarium with rocks and driftwood, mimicking their natural habitat.
**Compatibility:** These cichlids can coexist with other African cichlid species of similar size and temperament, particularly those from Lake Malawi. However, it's essential to carefully select tankmates to prevent conflicts.
**Behavior:** Known for their vibrant red coloration, Dragon Blood Peacock Cichlids are striking and attractive additions to freshwater aquariums. Males often display their colors to attract females and establish territories. They are active swimmers and appreciate spacious aquariums.
**Fun Fact:** The Dragon Blood Peacock Cichlid gets its name from its fiery red coloration, reminiscent of the mythical dragon's blood. This stunning coloration makes it a highly sought-after and visually captivating fish in the world of aquarium keeping.
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.
