Hey Fry I'll try to get those pics on here. I'ts gonna be a pain cause the one with the lighter eyes stays hidden most of the time, and they are tiney. I'll get it though!
I'd suggest that you buy it from a reputable breeder if you care about what you are getting. There's a good chance that you are going to get a cyano or even hybrids, etc from a lfs, especially chain stores. Ken Davis ("fishfarm") had a batch a little while ago but I'm not sure if he has any left.

Looks exactly like the 4 I have growing out right now. that I got from Ken. One of them, a female, is growing like a danged weed and is approaching 3.5" very quickly. I got them maybe a 4-6 weeks ago. They are doing real well so far and I've established the 2 biggest ones are both females. I think one of the two smaller ones is male but waiting to see him get a bit bigger and confirm there is no black in the dorsal.
I'm getting a new dslr by the end of this week or beginning of next, depending on UPS, so soon as I get the chance I'll show what mine look like as well, though theya re very much similar to the pic in the quote above.
