Well yes and no on the color. Yes they brighten when "peacocking" for a mate. Most animals do. But they dont stay that way.
Yes you can have males of other species like labs and peacocks. And you can have females of each. You just have to make sure you have a good ratio of m/f.
Also, minor overstocking is ok in a malawi tank. It spreads the aggression around better. Also note that peacocks are mildly aggressive, but not as much as the label they are given would make you think. The labs ive kept have been more pushy than any peacock ive ever had.

Well i was reading up on the all male tank and it seems sketchy at best for me to start on. So what might be a decent stock list for my 75 gallon in your guy's opinion? So far i like the electric yellow labs, acei, and peacocks in general. I still have to dig around and find my favorite peacock(s). Can i have more than one peacock species in my group?
