Thanks for the compliments on my fish and the pictures. I purchased this guy from a mixed cichlid tank at my LFS. He (and the others from this tank) were intended for cycling only. Now that my tank is cycled and the fish are growing up I think I'm going to keep all of them. I have a female auratus too, I need to pick up a few more girls so the one i have is not constantly harassed.

Ironically I have only one female with two males. Had two females but dominant female killer her. Now all is well and well obviously have babies
