Hi all, while at the LFS the weekend I came across a lone hemichromis in a tank, it was labeled elongatus but obviously with the red belly it's either of the two in the title. Currently 3 inches, I will get pics if he ever sits still and cooperates. Any obvious way to tell them apart?

Not on Facebook sorry pal, I have my two elongatus that won't breed, maybe he will slot in somewhere.
How big are yours, o thought max wS 9 inch but I've heard you had up to 12?
