thx for the response. my avatar is a F1 baenschi. They do not look the same. There are other pix in my gallery that are of my baenschi's too if you want to compare.

its definetly NOT a baenschi. i havent seen any peacock like it. possibly a hybrid as it portrays stuartgranti body shap with jacobfriebergi colouring.

thats whats confusing me. What are the distinguishing body shape features that determine stuartgranti or jacobfreibergi?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who struggles ID'ing Peacocks!

Personaly I would say he is an Alunocara jacobfrebergi "Eureka Red". He could be the twin of one I had a few years ago.

So I would say he is probably be a Eureka for sure. By the way, that is one very nice looking fish. How big is he in those pics?

He is about 3" TL.
Yes he does look pretty good. But if its a hybrid I'd be mifted.
The colouring is more yellow then the Eureka though.

I would like to know what Bradley sees with the body shape.

thx
