No way to tell 100% at that size or by those pictures.

Dan sent you a pair. Be patient and they will spawn for you eventually. They are still young and in a new environment...and chances are, NOTHING you buy tomorrow will spawn any faster than what you already have.

Did you read somewhere or did someone tell you that getting cichlids to spawn was quick and easy? Because its not.

Id be willing to bet you could alter your water changes/ feeding/ temps/ tank mates/ environment and have more success than buying another fish.
 
well it was said that the male is normally bigger then the female and dan also said they have already breed for him. so i thought if i got bigger male it might be better because she keeps chasing him and not the chase fish
 
How big are they? By the pis I would guess barely 3". If so, why would you want them to spawn at such a young age? I have a male and female both 3" and they show no interest in each other. They are just to small.

Dan also said they have already breed too for him
 
JMO, they are too small, and I have never had a female spawn with a male that was smaller than her. I had a Devil and Xilo both females fought the males prior to spawning to determine if the males were capable of being good fathers. And both cases the male was either equal or bigger in size. But they were 6-7" big. I know you said that Dan said they have spawned, but honestly, way to young.
 
sometimes we probly do and My i may seem like a ass at time or don't realize what i am doing half the because my brain is messed up from Iraq.
