The name 'Daffodil' refers to water lilies, which is what we call water lilies. They are likely named because their color and posture are similar to water lilies - fresh with a touch of splendor, elegant and pleasant, and lovable, attracting affection!

Peacock Bass, whether from morphology, color, species, or living habits and adaptability, are all very suitable for beginners. Yellow-winged Peacock Bass is no exception. Their overall body is grayish-yellow with red spots, and the yellow on their dorsal fins is even more vibrant and dazzling, with long, silky tails and shimmering blue hues. The bright blue orbital rims and yellow eyeshadows make them look very energetic. Black bars are present at the back. When talking about these, the black bars on their faces are the main distinguishing features between Neolamprologus pulcher and Neolamprologus brichardi.
