Bought the bulkier one at 6", and smaller one at 2.5", 1.5 years ago. Now both 9-10". They occasionally chase each other and "kiss," but nothing serious. Live with large group of clown loaches in a 170g. It's prob not a pair, but one can dream.

It could be a pair, since they both have different body shape. Some people said bulky bodied flagtail is female, but it is not a confirm statement.
 
I was thinking the same thing. One does look thicker bodied than the other but I'm no expert on these fish. Always wanted one though. Hopefully one day soon.
 
I always read that you couldn't keep 2 Flagtails together, need a group or all alone. So far, just some chasing and nipped fins.

I have a similar pair except mine are 10-11".

Do yours rub their nose raw against the tank sides? Looks like they have the same spot above their top lip as mine. Just wondering if it's a species specific thing.
