They grow to about 10". They can be aggressive, especially to con specifics. If you search "aquamojo" here you can find some juvenile photos. Here's a link to some adult photos: http://modevlin.zenfolio.com/p324768038

I would just get a nice Amphilophus species like I have commented on your old threads. Easier to pair than any of those fish you listed, easy to care for, and lots of outgoing personality.

Micros are nice. Where did you get them? Pictures?

Hope this doesn't turn into another species purchased and spent a decent amount of momey on to later become a dissapointment. Sems like this happens often

I've tried! Just because a fish is uncommon/rare and looks cool in pictures doesn't mean it's much fun to keep once the novelty wears off.
