My first pics

all fish are no larger than 3 inches except for the Hartwegi which is about 5 inches. All fish are courtesy of Jeff Rapps except the gold saum. i know the tank will be, if it isnt already overstocked but im looking to see which of the fish will get along. filtration - FX5 and 2 AC110's

if anyone can sex any of the fish by these pictures please do.

Sweet looking tank/set up! Great stock too except for the Salvini... Well, I take that back. I had 1, male, turned into a prick and had to get rid of him... He had some intense colors too.

Anyway, for sexing..... The only one I would take a guess at it the EBJD male.

Oh and cool Hartwegi too! I have a soft spot for them.
 
i want a hartwegi.
i kinda wanna do a vieja paratheraps tank still!
next time my friend gets a fish order going i'll try snag a hartwegi in there.
 
thanks for all the comments. I may be selling the hartwegi due to his size. he is just way bigger than the others and he fights with my gt!!!
 
Hi. I would say the salvini is probably female. Usually the ones with the black areas/spot on the top fin are. Mine was a female and turned pretty aggressive with anything added to the tank after the initial setup. She got along fine with the school of tiger barbs that were in the tank prior to her addition but killed any cichlids I tried to add afterwards. She did however get along with the african cichlids (acei and labs) when I totally rearranged her tank with just her and them. As she aged her colors were amazing. Good luck with the tank Sue
