The Yellow Peacock Cichlid (Aulonocara baenschi), also known as the Sunshine or Benga Peacock, is a magnificent freshwater fish native to Lake Malawi, celebrated for its intense, vibrant golden-yellow coloration and comparatively peaceful demeanor.

Short Description & Highlights

The Yellow Peacock Cichlid (approx. 2.5–3.5 inches current size) is an active, striking centerpiece fish for African cichlid setups. Unlike aggressive Mbuna species, Aulonocara baenschi features a much mellower temperament, making it an ideal choice for beginner aquarists stepping into the world of Lake Malawi aquatics. Males exhibit a blazing yellow body adorned with subtle light-blue facial highlights.
