wow thats a great looking pair. they look like RTM to me, but i'm no parachromis expert
 
they dont look like RTM's to me, but im no expert, i just been looking for RTM's and those to me look hybrid or loiselli?
 
Thank you all for your kind comments. I'm gna go with RTMs, unless told otherwise.

Aggression between the pair is minimal, a bit of lip-locking but normally they like to just occupy the same area most of the time.

Aggression with any tankmates is much more severe when they're breeding. Of a 6 foot tank, they want at least half of it and they're only 5" atm.

Currently looking for another tank for the RTMs themselves as they are easily my fave fish atm.
 
wooww that's a really nice and very red male, a lot of the males I've seen have hints of red speckles but mostly brown spots. Reminds me of one of the males Wild Caught brought in a yr or so ago.
