my newest addition...

Hey everyone just wanted to share with yall what i recently added to my tank:
- 2 convict cichlids
- 1 electric blue
there all around an inch if not a little less.

The one convict that is vertical has a really interesting personality to him and will only flare like that and act different when the other convict comes up to him/her.

Sorry for the big pics, this was a kind of quick thread post. But tell me what you think.
- Oh and there hasnt been any signs of hard aggression towards any of them that i know of... and there perfectly fine with my CL's and gouramis.

Anyone recognize the behavior in the 2nd pic from the top?? I've researched some and apparently it's normal...? any other feedback?

that little guy definitely does not look like an electric blue, looks more like a Neolamprologus Tretocephalus its a Tanganyikan

you answered my question lol. i was gonna post if he was different than an electric blue, but he definetly looks close to one. He was labeled in the "assorted cichlids" tank at the store...

In a lfs it wont be a tret labled as an assorted african. Needless to say does not belong with convicts. It's ambuna of some sort. Looks close to a demasoni but idk

ive got a tret myself in my tanganyika community tank and looks just like yours. the electric blue cichlids are malawi.
