Yes, gold head. From a breeder. I have one orange in the tank. I did not get a pic of it. I got it a while ago. Some of his siblings had a deformed nose spike. He did not.
I have a pair of black calvus
I have a single ink fin
3 gold head 1m 3f
1 orange
4 dwarf
2 fire fin
Not all are pictured. They are hiding. I believe they are trying to breed, but are all sharing the same area of the 120 as the julies and lelepui have the other parts. I will attempt to breed later in the fish room... Thanks for all the great comments. I will add more later. Feel free to add yours too.
I will get more... They are going in a show 135 with buffaloheads and fronts.... dwarfs will stay in shellie tank.

Peacocks leave them alone. He is the alpha in the tank followed by the fronts. The comps mainly chase each other. Nothing serious.
not to hijack..
but since you all have way more experience w/ comps/calvus then i do. My bro-in-law is hand off (2) of his 3-4" GH comps to me.. can i keep them in the same tank along with my (3) 1-1.5" comps?? not a good idea?? thanks all

and can live in pairs or harems..but only one male..and that will require a lot of space for each female to build their own territory.. or the subdominant males to hide
it can ve done..but you'll require a big tank like mike's..if you have it go for it..
