I'd been eying some of these in the buy/sell forum, but the lfs had a large group so I went ahead and bought a pair. Don't know sex yet, are they big enough to sex? They're about 3" long.

Sorry for the crappy pics, they're all washed out from just being added to the tank.

congrats! these are cool fish ;)

so pic #1 is one fish and all the rest are the other fish?

Thanks!

And I believe so. I wasn't really paying attention to which pics I uploaded. But the second fish was much less spooked than the first, and was out in the open more. I'll take some more in a bit, now that they've calmed down some.

Looks like you might have a pair ;)
 
yep...quite likely a pair.

Might be a good idea to pick up a couple more anyways - sometimes "extras" make them bound better. But these guys might be rough on each other, although mine haven't been too bad.
 
nice conner! you are getting quite the collection. I was going to pick up a pair but SOMEONE ^^ let them get whooped on ;) j/k. but seriously, stop getting so many cool fish because it is making me feel a little jealous.

I can't help trying to get the best collection I can.
