Well for their 1st spawn together they had sucessful spawn w/ very few loss of eggs to the dreaded fungus. Currently both Fish range are approx 6-7 inches (bought them at a little under 5 inches back on April) They are currently in a 180 gallon tank w/ few other tankmates (same species) but are limited to hide behind the strawberry pots and rear corners of the tank. The fry are almost a week old and are being fed BBS along with crushed flakes and the algae growing on the pots. Thanks to Paul at Central States and Don Conkel.

First Arg breeding pair on mfk possibly lol.
They look great though.
I'm still awaiting on the arrival of my argenteas.
They were suppose to be here like 2 weeks ago!!!
Maybe Rapps sent me a pair lol.
 
So in the top photo the male is top and female is bottom, right? Any thing that gives away the sexes on them that you've noticed?
