Nice pick up. Will be even more impressive once they get some size!
 
Emps! Nice! You are going to truly need a monster tank but it can be done. I have a video somewhere of a 500+ gallon Tang community with a pair of Emps that spawned. If I can find it, I'll add it as a reply.

Pour votre plaisir

 
Very nice! I nearly got a young 8" Boulengechromis microlepis a few years back to put in my 225 (3 feet wide) and I decided against it because they require a much larger aquarium than I could provide seeing as the fish in question was a male lol.

keep an update on how they are doing!
