Whoops, just re-read the the OP and he's already got a Chocolate and is looking for tankmates for it 
japes;1687234; said:+1 for Chocolates, stunning example there spizz, how big is that male? (I've seen females with heads like that before
Can mix it with the best of them if they want to (Rapps photo of a pair is in the same tank as a Dovii..) but are very relaxed non-aggressive fish if they aren't breeding.
Could be female..lol Never vented it. If you say girl, that must be what she is......
I think it's a male, but I can't see all the fin extensions so I was questionable, as I have seen females with a reasonably prominent nuchal hump like that.
Busted I did not read the whole thread...lol Sorry....js302;1687474; said:
considered geo's too. but think i want something thats going to be around the 12" mark, give or take an inch or two. considering they will be going in with rays and pacu eventually, size DOES matter
i chose the chocolate because they may not be extremely long, but the adult i saw at the LFS has to easily be 3" thick. quite the wide fish, which gave her a real cool looking appearance. plus the color changes depending on mood are awesome to watch. their hands down one of my fav fish.

dident know there were geo's that attained much of a size. biggest ive ever seen was maybe 6-7".
that bocourti is an awesome looking fish too. i may have to start yet another sa/ca tank just to get some of the fish you guys been reccomending
