WTT: 2 Adult OB Peacocks - PLACED

[Lydia]

Hi. I have 2 adult OB Peacocks that I would like to trade. They are both really pretty. Not sure of sex with OB's since you can't rely on coloring, but I really thought they were a pair - one more blue, one more orange and definite difference in size. But the way they fight, I don't know. But I am not experienced with OB's either. Get along with everyone else - even little peaceful tropicals - just not each other. We just had a major scrap yesterday and you can see who lost. I don't like the drama that these fish are causing me.......hahaha. Open to lots of trades!

Current tanks:
Hap/Peacocks
Mbuna
Discus
Angel
South American Cichlids
Monodactylus

My thoughts

Well, thanks for the feedback guys.......that was my thoughts also...........so I was all excited to think I could add them to my mbuna tank. OMG NOT!!! I did the normal, fed everyone, moved hardscape around, turned out the lights. Added one OB. OMG I have never witnessed anything so violent in the fishworld! It was like sharks on a wounded dolphin. Every fish in that tank - they launched an immediate corporate attack and had the OB pinned in the corner to devour him ! I literally had to reach in the tank and grab him with my hand or they would have ripped him to shreds and I am not exaggerating one bit. I think " I " was traumatized! haha So that ended my thinking they were zebras!!!

So now, one is in a tank with a dozen goldfish, happy and peaceful with those guys as all get out. The other does fine with the peacocks (just a bit of a bully and I have some holidng) so is currently in with my severum, and he's a mellow fellow. They're really beautiful and I'm quite fond of Elvis (has a speckle right on top of his lip so it looks like he always is doing his Elvis face!) After tank rearranging this weekend, I'll have to see who settles down and who doesn't. Good grief! And I do fish as a stress reliever..........now I have fish drama!!!
