Here a few pics of my hoplarchus psittacus sparring.. I think these two are both males and they are showing off for the female in the tank....They are only 5" so they are probably still a little small to breeed but it is an encouraging sign.
 
Nice´!
I´ve got two males (around 10", maybe 11) and they don´t like eachother also... even with no females in the tank
Here is a pic that shows them both

Both of you have great looking psittacus, some I love some mak me wonder what's the big deal about this species but I love these guys. Now Im going to be thinking about them again when I upgrade my 125.
 
Wish I could get some of my young down to you in the US. I have about 150, 2-3" young coming up right now along with six extra full grown adults available Here's a pic of the 'little guys', and the parents guarding a new hatch.
