Help Me Decide

[konor123]

I have a 300l tank with 5 yellow labs in there and i was thinking of getting another african species.I am a fan of OB fish.
Help me choose?

OB Zebra

OR

OB Peacock

Zebra, it is usually not a good idea to mix peacocks with mbuna because of different aggression levels (even though labs are not that aggressive) and set-up requirements (more open spaces vs. more rockwork). On the other hand, zebras and labs will cross breed.

Both have a very similar bodyshape, and both come in a MASSIVE range of colours.

Pretty hard tbh. Do you already have one of either of the above species? That should help you choose.

Oh, and

Thanks, i think i'm going with zebras.
My mind was on zebras at the start because i've heard they are really cool and i have seen that most of the time they aren't expensive as peacocks.
