Greetings All,
I was wondering if anyone can clarify the definition of conspecific aggression - specifically for peacock cichlids.
I read that conspecific defines color and patterns.
For example - would that mean an Aulonocara Jacobfreibergi Eureka Red would not be openly aggressive to a Aulonocara baenschi if you house 2 males together? Would both males color up and not aggress against another due to different coloration/patterns?
I'm not entirely sure how fish look at the color spectrum. I can understand a Eureka Red fighting a German Red, but what about Blue Neons vs Benga's (both have yellow coloration)?
