identifying three blue cichlids: need help

[olixo]

Hey all,

Just got back from the LFS with three new cichlids, but the guy who helped me wasn't super clear on the IDs.

He said they're a
- Zebra mbuna
- Blue peacock
- Jacob Peacock

Does that sound right to you guys?

Looks like you've got the IDs correct.

Left one's a blue zebra, mbuna for sure.
Middle's your blue peacock.
Right one's actually a Jacob Freibergii, not Jacob Peacock.

Thanks coltin, really appreciate the confirmation.

I've always had a thing for Zebra cichlids, they're absolutely stunning. But let's be real, they can be a handful with their aggressive nature.

Compared to the yellow lab and strawberry peacock, this guy seems pretty laid back. I had to remove the second strawberry peacock after just a day, older one was relentless in chasing him.
