What is this fish

[CamERER]

This peacock was bought from petco about 1 year ago. Have no idea what it is called though. Anyone know?

It looks like a Dragon Blood / Fire Fish Peacock.

It definitely does but the red eyes suggest Albino? Maybe a Strawberry Peacock? So hard to tell sometimes.

Yes, "Strawberry Peacock" is probably the specific variety. It's still a Dragon Blood. This was my best Dragon Blood. He was a "Royal Tangerine peacock". Who comes up with these names? Lol.

I have no clue but it would be allot easier if they just had one name. Lol. Like every other animal. Pretty sure Rottweilers are only called Rottweilers. Lol
Idk exactly which one mine is but somedays he is more of a red hue, which it's so red that I've actually thought he was bleeding and then other days more orange. Figured it was normal.

I have a dragon blood here will they both color up?

I'd say it is already.

The lower Dragon Blood looks like a show quality male. The top fish looks good too. Difficult to tell if it will color up like the other. If it's female, not likely to get any better.
