A friend purchased this at Walmart from an assorted African cichlid tank, any ideas on what kind it is?
 
It's a fish! Needs water!

Not 100% obviously a peacock but looks like an albino but it doesnt have the red eyes. Also im not convinced its a OB peacock cause those black spots dont look right. Im gonna go with a hybrid peacock.
 
Ob peacock/hybrid (not albino) for sure, looks to be female. I had a similar fish years ago.

I was thinking those marking were odd compared to OB... almost like a spirulina reaction but then again, when does a chain lfs feed spirulina
 
I have one exactly like her but bigger lol. I was told she is an OB Peacock and she is now a new mom. Can't wait to see what the babies look like as they get bigger. 48-50 are in the grow out tank now
