If so could yall post some pics for me? Im thinking about getting a couple of these guys. Are they pretty peaceful? Would they be good in my tank with my Gold Sev and my S. leucosticta?
 
ive got about 20 that I couldnt get rid of theyre all young adults now they are pretty calm for the most part but they are cichlids so you have to watch them when they pair up and decide to breed I dont have any pics but Im sure someone will post some
 
On paper they'll work great, in the tank you always risk one being a jerk but this would be a low risk

bbortko: that is a great looking female!

I have a big male. He is the boss of my 125. He seems to want to breed with anything and even spawned with a firemouth (shortly before killing her)

I've read that Nics are peaceful (for CA's) but that is not the case with mine. If he stays still for me I will try to get a pic.
 
I have about 12 of them and they really cause no issue in my tank with others
