Forgot to post some pics of the Chocolate. I really love this little guy, great personality and is growing like a weed. It has been growing at least 1 inch a month since I got it.

its a male because of the blue beard on the gill plate, males dont get the blue beard that females have.jgentry;2142945; said:Thanks for the correction mbunafishkeeper. I had been told it was a male and never really questioned it.Most of it's blue is higher on it's body and it does not have a ton of spangling on it's gill plate so I just went with what I was told. It has never really had the finage of a male so I just thought it wasn't a very good one. I have no clue what my EBJD is. I'll just have to wait and see. I'm not sure if they can be sexed very easily until the mature. It's fins look more like a male but all EBJD's tend to have longer fins.
Thanks for the info.
