| The Eureka Peacock was line bred from the Otter Point race of jacobfreibergi. The albino form of the Eureka Peacock may or may not be a hybrid. Many albino forms of cichlids have been engineered by aquarists and these sometimes use the genes from other albino cichlids to introduce the albino phenotype. |
