NIce, do the males have more colors? But she is cute, how big do they ussually get, pretty fast growers>?
the males do have more coloures be females are the ones with the blue gill plates,from what i have been told mine is really nice for a female,plus i used flash so it washed out the colour quite a bit.
size wise,i'd say expect 10-12" for a male and 8-10" for a female

my male jack dempsey is 8 inches long and 15 months old. i have 3 others but they havent grown as big as him. they live about 6 years and they eat feeder minnows guppies brine shrimp earthworms beefhearts ground beef pellets. you must do weekly water changes because they are messy eaters and produce a lot of waste
Here is a picture of mine. Still ALOT more growing to do. You should get one if you have the room
