I had a peacock with my africans for 5 years. I fed him bloodworms with a turkey baster so i could shoot the food right to him. Unfortunately he died during an ich outbreak

Well hopefully your gang haven't hunted him down and he's ok.It's possible you won't see him for a few days.

Yeah I hope he's ok, but they sure were on the hunt last night! I was watching them and they were in every little hole. They knew something had entered there home.

You can have Peacock Eels with Africans? I would love a Peacock Eel but have been told they cannot hand with Mbuna. What does it eat?

I wouldnt think you could. Id think a peacock eel would be attacked, they dont get too big. A zig zag peacock would work IMO. They eat bloodworm cubes, thats all i have ever gotten mine to eat so far. He rips the entire thing out of your hand.

You should try small pieces of earthworms. They love them and I had two with my mbuna and they hid a lot but where never bothered.

You can get them at gas stations, sporting goods places, and other places like that... At least around here.
