its called a nuptial hump in cons. nice male btw
Nice fish regardless![]()
In my experience old males will develop one. I've only seen them on large ancient looking cons though.

"Normal" cichlids don't get huge ones like a flowerhorn. But it will grow some with the fishes age and dominance. Nice con!

I had a large 6" male that had a nice hump (for a Convict). As some of the others have said, it's usually something that doesn't develop until they're a bit older (if it even develops at all). Below, a pic of my old male in a 55G a couple of years back.
