Aulonocara hansbaenschi or red shoulder peacock, is an African cichlid native to Lake Malawi, Lake Malombe and the upper Shire River. They live in rocky areas near the shore where they feed on mollusks, crustaceans, and snails along with any other fish they can catch. Aulonocara hansbaenschi are one of the most popular peacock cichlids, but they are also one of the most difficult to breed and care for.
