In regard to the Rivulatus, I would expect to see more of a nuchal hump in a male. Im glad you said male...I want a male Rivulatus. But im worried because he/she doesnt have much of a hump. I will get you some more pics..Thank you for your help
I had a mixed malawi tank, Demasoni, Labs, zebras, then I tried to rotate in some peacocks...Bad results, All male peacocks are a much better idea. Now I keep just a few large SA cichlids...
Its been my experience that you should not mix them. I just kept losing expensive peacocks. Mbuna are just aggressive. Ive kept all kinds of mbuna. They just don't like peacocks or haps. I have a 125 gallon tank as well. Never tried over stocking.... that may work well, it has for others

The easiest, most flexible filter is a sump. Not to mention a large tank needs a sump IMO. Yes you can use a can filter. But a sump really is the way to go.
Be careful...you have to watch the male to female ratio closely. It's fine when they are young. I decided to go all male fish. I've mixed mbuna, peacocks, haps...i still have to watch them close. Females cause chasing to turn to killing occasionally
First off I'm very sorry you're dealing with this. A few questions. What are you feeding? What are your water test params? Do you have a hospital tank?
I have 100 lbs of dead/live rock in my peacock/hap tank. It keeps my PH dead on 8.0. I have noticed no fin or body damage from the edges. Yet....

I am sure he is not getting bullied. He/She is never hiding or the chasee. Always acting dominant. I was hoping someone could tell from the vent picture.
