Could always do a planted tank with shrimp, and some type of nano for a second tank.
BTW glad to see your back, that was a short trip. Less than a year, or am I loosing track of time?
There is a salt water fish store in downtown Arlington, but I cant think of the name. I was in there about 5 months ago and the owner was very knowledgeable.
I would move out the cories and the micro fish and get your rcs to start breeding until you have a good population then move your micro fish in. Ive kept guppies of various types, dwarf groumis and badis badis with rcs with little to no damage so far.
I was looking last night and didnt come up with anything close enough to resemble the fish, my guess is going by the shape of the body and the head it might be a hybrid with a Metraclima species in it. Your correct on the dorsal fin, most males from Mbuna all have a longer pointed dorsal fin...
The head of that unknown fish doesnt even resemble a peacock, Ill have to do some research on cichlid-forum and see what looks close to it. Maybe gobluecichlid might chime in on this one.
If you can get them to breed and have a good supply of them it would give me a reason to start up a new tank and finally use my fluval stratum substrate to obtain the lower ph and soften needed for them. So when the time comes and you a good stock of them let me know.
