Thanks :) They're Amphilophus xiloaensis. I still have the white male but not the female. I got 2 new females a few months ago from Rapps along with a male colored sagittae. :)
 
@ Koltsix the average size in the tank is about 6-7in right now.
@ Gourami Swami I got my Chanchos from Rapps. Never seen chanchos in Shark Aquarium.
@ Jason_S how are the Xilo's? Never kept one before. They resemble the labiatus.

xilo's are a somewhat smaller, less aggressive (ime) version of a midas. I'll have had my guy for 2 years in feb and he's about 9.5" SL/11" TL. From what I've read this appears to be on the larger side for a xilo. He's in my 125 with 2 female xilo's that are around 4-5", a male carpintis 'escondido' at about 6", a male sagittae around 7-8", a black belt of around 4" and 3 small yellow head freddies that are around 2-2.5". Stock will definitely be thinned down and/or spread out to other tanks as necessary but for now they all get along very well.
