Also if you're gonna do a small group of male peacocks try to pick out a more robust species, like jacobs, ob's or various hybrids like gold, strawberry, dragonblood/firefish.
In my experience they can hold their own with mbuna, while others get picked out and on, even by rusties and especially aceis (for some unknown reason my acei went after peacocks only). Right now I only have a single lab and an afra in my peacock tank, these two seem the only quiet ones with various peacocks and haps.
