Description

Radiant Ruby Red Peacock Cichlid for sale – The Crown Jewel of Lake Malawi

Command the tank with a flash of crimson. The Radiant Ruby Red Peacock Cichlid for sale (often referred to as the Rubin Red) is widely considered the most desirable “red” cichlid in the hobby. Unlike standard variants that may only show hints of orange, this line is bred specifically for a deep, velvet-red body that glows against the rocky backdrop of a Lake Malawi aquarium.

Why the Fish R Us Ruby Red is the Gold Standard:

• Deep “Blood-Red” Pigmentation: We source from elite lineages to ensure our specimens develop a solid, saturated red rather than a pale orange.

• Electric Blue Contrast: A true Ruby Red features a shimmering metallic blue face and dorsal trim, creating a “bicolor” look that is breathtaking under LED lighting.

• The Peaceful Predator: Like most Aulonocara, the Ruby Red is relatively peaceful, making it the perfect king of a mixed Peacock and Haplochromis community.

• Hand-Selected Quality: At Fish R Us, we wait for the fish to begin displaying their adult colors before shipping, ensuring you receive a specimen with high potential for intense coloration.

Specifications:

• Max Growth Size: 5″ – 6″

• Temperament: Semi-Aggressive (Peaceful for a Cichlid)

• Ideal Tank: 55+ Gallons with open swimming space and rock caves.

• Diet: Omnivore (High-quality pellets and frozen mysis shrimp)

Tip: Pair with Hap. Iceberg Ahli (Blue) and Golden Peacock (Yellow). The Red-Blue-Yellow ‘Power Trio’ is the hallmark of a professional Malawi tank. Save 10% when you buy all three together!
