ID pls

Postby rafcarontes » Fri Oct 21, 2011 9:48 am

Hi everyone, could you please have a look at the following pictures.... I am not sure of the exact ID of these fish; they were given to me as Aulonocara Jacobfreibergi but I am sure they are not. I need some expert advices on this matter now that the dominant male is fully coloured in order to identified them. The dominant male is quite aggressive and actively chases other fish (I thought peacocks were pretty peaceful????). In the first four pictures there is my dominant male, in the last picture one of my females.
Any help is really appreciated
Cheers
