Please Help Identify This Peacock

[Jeremy Z]

I got this peacock at a local Fish Gallery. The tank did not specify the type of cichlid so I asked an employee and the first employee I spoke to said it was a German Red Peacock. However he went to confirm with another employee and then came back and said it was a Ruby Red Peacock.

What do you think?
