Also, got a bit of a problem with one of my peacocks - hes actin kinda strange. Hes down under the rocks in a little cave thing and his mouth is bobbin up and down like crazy. Any ideas what could be wrong? Hes only tiny, bout 2 inches big if that.

Anyone,
I think I know the one you might be talking about with the yellow fins.
Also, I had a peacock that acted strange like that, it was stressed or something was wrong with the water quality. Was the water parameters okay when you last checked?

The copadichromis borleyi's got some distinct characteristics - females keep that grey color, but you'll see reddish orange on their fins. Males, on the other hand, get that blue face and a red body.
