Heres some pictures of the Sieboldi pair i picked up yesterday, a bargain at £30. Males around 5-6" female 4"+.
My LFS owed me some credit so i grabbed these as soon as i saw em.
My opologies for the poor quality:(

These are the first Tomocichla ive ever kept. They have never been my cuppa tea, but wen i saw them in the shop, i couldnt resist.

Very cool. I have a small pair in my 95 gallon right now. The male harrasses the female like no tomorrow though...

Nice, what size are yours?? So far ive seen no aggression, but theyre in a 300G community, so plenty of distraction and space to escape!

Mine are about 3" or so...they are in a 95 gallon community tank....
 
Ive been watching the Sieboldii today, and the female has a very nasty streak!! She doesnt like female company at all, and constantly chases off my Istlanum, Salvini and Tamasapoensis females. I think shes a bit of a bunny boiler!!
 
I have a male and he killed my grammodes. They are very active and can be extremely aggressive they have cookie cutter-like mouths.
 
Am i right in believing that these can grow to 10"-12"?
