Lemon Jake Peacock Cichlid

The Lemon Jake Peacock Cichlid is a beautiful long finned blue and yellow cichlid from lake Malawi. Lemon Jakes, like Yellow Peacocks, do not get color until three inches and males have more color and longer fins than the females. Of course males always display better with the presence of the other sex. PLEASE NOTE on peacock cichlids, and most African cichlids, the adult colors do not become present until the fish is a good 3 inches in size.
