Been meaning to post these for a while but never actually got around to it. Heres three of my 7 (these are three of the adults and i beleive its 1 female and 2 fairly obvious males....but you tell me!)
Id like to add the females but money sort of precludes me from doing this but if anyones feeling generous!

Doh!, i was so that chuffed id got useable photos i didnt even check that two werent the same fish ! (they quite obviously are).
You can see from the photos i have two differnt sizes. I have 4 the same size as the main fish in the photos. These are around 3inches head to tip of tail. Age wise i couldnt tell you exactly however they are almost certainly over 3 years (ive had them over a year and a half).
The Juves are 2 1/2 inches long and coming on to 18months to two years. I noticed growth rate was faster with RO water and buffer salts than with carbon filtered tap (which ive used for the last 6 months).
I'll try again soon to get a photo of each however i dont like stressing them (i wouldnt be able to get photos of them in the tank so i had to catch them to get these....they dont like that one bit!)

I'm going with male and possible female..
I say possible as the head shape could still be male... but the body shape says female (as does the lack of spines on the cheeks)
