Discus vs African Peacocks?

[Fishanatic]

Cichlids are better

Like a boss

I am in the uk and I get them 2 for £10

Nice thats cheap, The size and the colour are more important to me. 20quid for a nice one here.

True I would never get a fish on price alone but one of my fish shops cant tell there is a 400% difference in price between a standard blue and say an samori colour so I love to take advantage of this

I know lol

 

[TheCommunityCichlid]

You know what I meant Africans are better

 

[lilpenquin]

I know haha. I'm just so attached to my discus. They really are my babies. They'll eat out of my hand and come near my hand whenever it's in the tank. They have such personality!

Discus!they are fun and very intelligent!

 

[Fishanatic]

Well, I think both are extraordinary fish
Discus are a bit more exotic:3

Both are extremely intelligent fish. My tap water is perfect for africans being hard and alkaline. Discus need soft acidic water... So if i want to keep discus ill have to install an r/o unit. With africans i wont. Decisions mmm hmmm

It's all about personal preference. What do you want, or are leaning towards. Getting others opinions is all good, but what it comes down to is what do you want?

Personally I love cichlids, and can't have enough of them.
