Nice, the normal size on these guys is 6-8 in right? I have one, it is only 1 and a half in though.

Yes, approx. 6-9" TL, with males typically being larger than females. These 3 males are approx. 7-8", with the largest dom male being the darker one in the lower left of the photo. They still have some growing to do before they max out.

Looks as impressive as a trio of flowerhorns.
