Finally bummed a better camera than mine to take a few photos. Here she is, around 7-8". Mean fish. I need to sell her to make room for my "true" gt grow outs. The flash subdues the yellow and brings out the blue.

Hey Modest to bad you are half way across the country.
She would look good with my six inch male.

I can ship. :) I may have a buyer, but I haven't heard from him in a few days.

Nice male. Don Conkel said he could sex them by the dorsal fin (females have metallic yellow), and I think I can see what he means.

how much were you asking for it?
 
Mine definitely doesn't have any yellow on the dorsal. Plus vent is pointed, slender and slightly curved.
