found these lil stunners at LFS labeled as Costa Rican Cichlids. These lil guys are only 2". Never seen Nicaraguans with this much color at this size. Excuse the iphone pic quality. What you guys think?

Thx Monte and CoolJ

here is a pic of the other 3 I have a total of 5.

I read that Nicaraguans are docile fish, these aren't, they confront my 10" Geos head on. If they nip a thread of any of my geo's trailers they are OUT!!! haha impulse buy I couldn't pass up these high quality Nics

Nics, docile ? No way !! Spunky little things !

Those are fantastically coloured nics so young. You did well to get them !

They are the most colorful CA cichlid babies I have ever seen. Nice pick up!

Nica are real funny. Mine get along with other fish most of the time but if one of them wonders into their territory they can get nasty. They aren't usually a bully but won't back down from a fight. I remember going to a lfs and seeing a tank full or red devils and nics with the nics chasing the devils up and down the tank.
