very cool.
ive been stacking parachromis myself, although im stopping at jag, freddy and RTM.
the freddi and baby RTM are mean little bastards compared to my big calm jags.

Right on. Been keeping Jags for years. Started Dovii 3yrs ago and the rest are all new to me. I have had the RTM for a little over a year. The losielle I have had for 2yrs.
The only real fighting was between my male Jag and the female RTM. She is a beast but she's a calm cool Mota. Haven't tried a male yet I have had freind's who have told me there going to be the test if I can do all the sp in community tank's.
 
ive got all mine in a 220 plus a losile/texas hybrid a FH ornate bichir and lima shovelnose.
which is why i stopped. may have to take someone out in the next 6-8 months.
So far its pretty peaceful. the jags rule the tank just due to shear size difference on everyone else. But the female freddy keeps pecking at them and the tiny RTM is going after convicts larger than he is.

Thats a nice mix of personality's. Sound's like a beautiful crew of some of my top 10 Cichlids. I love Con's as well. I have a beautiful female.
 
It's been a little under a month. After removing and them killing off a few tank mates I would say there relaxed in there new home. I took a few pics couldn't catch the insane blue's in there fins but I got some GOLD.

They are coming along nicely.

Thanks greenterra. I can't say it enough I can't believe I didn't get a pair of these earlier. Seeing them like this has me kicking myself for not droping the cash a long time ago. By now I would have had a full adult pair.


P.S. I LOVE YOUR SIGNATURE!
 
Here is my "La Cieba" Freddy. I wish you could see the blues... my camera sucks. He is about 8" and is easy the most aggr fish in my 265g. He is not the boss, but def the most aggr. I think I'm gonna put him in his own tank soon, but I might have to decide between him and my RTM as I might not keep both. Great fish and really cool race of Freddy. Yours look really good.
