Can someone ID these pls?

[alexanian]

I've seen them at my LFS, but I don't want to buy them if I don't know what they are. Can someone please help with the ID? They are about 3-4 inches.

Oh man I would love to get them but my 190 has a breeding trio of GTs. I have a house full of small tanks for the GT fry I don't have a place for another big tank. Hmmmm... what size tank would you guys recommend for a breeding pair of jags? Maybe I could move some tanks around.

125 minimum for a adult pair, 75 if they are both under 10 inches

Agree with crazymike, because a male will easily hit 14", a 125gal (480 L) is probably minimum for an adult pair.
I kept a spawning pair comfortably in a 150 gal for many years, the male was about 14", the female 10".

Agreed, mine are in a 120 and spawning, wouldn't go smaller than a 150, at this size

Looks like I won't be able to move some tanks around just yet, maybe in 6 months or so. Thanks for all the help, if I ever do get them I'll post updates.
