This is a sort of time series of the growth of one of my male aulonocara sturtgranti. I got them when they were about two months old and since then they have grown steadily and hopefully with any luck will continue to.

August 2006 (2 months old and 3cm in length)

They haven't reach full adult colouration yet (another six months I would think), but IMO I think they are a great looking fish and have surprised me with their ability to cope with mbuna.
 
It's never easy to integrate Peacocks into a Mbuna tank. I think the fact that you have several helps - i'm glad it's working out for you, they look very healthy and happy. :good:
 
Nice fish Tanks, they make good subjects for photos - peacocks.
I think I saw one of these recentely they looked stunning some fish you just have to see with your eye as no photo will do them justice.
