Here are my lil RTM growouts ranging from 2-3" the larger one i believe is female. after watching them for lil while i think i have 5 males and two females in this group. i also have one i grew out from a previous group which is 3.25" and she is in a separate tank. they are already showing great color and potential. I think these guys are my new favorite Parachromis:headbang2I really like this species alot now. I am still not sure on the sex's yet as they are new to me, but i can see different tones in what i think are females vs males. but anyway here is a lil video its not the best but you can see the crew:) I am not sure what type of fish i have in with them lol. i picked up the other guys from lfs as dithers and he said they were brazil something lol. possibly brasilliensis?? and a vieja hybrid.

RTM are mos def my favorite parachromis! Those little guys/girls already look great. Can't wait to see how they look when they get bigger under your care.
 
Thank you Bobby:) I find myself watching this tank the most.

Gruff master thank you and i too need more tanks;)
 
Looking good, I agree Motas are my favorite Parachromis too. I had a breeding pair a while back and loved them. Once they started breeding there was no stopping them, they were also great parents. They have all the Parachromis additude anyone could ask for in a managable size. The Rio Blancos are hot!
