Look like convicts to me. Can't really sex them because of the pic quality.

sorry about that, i dont have a camera and im borrowing my gf's...
one is a marble (i think?) and im pretty sure its a male and the other two i think are females...they have an ever so slight orange tint to the anal fins....

teh "marble" is a EBJD and a con hybrid. im almost positive.

I've always gone with the red behind the gill plates as far as sexing. That marble is pretty sharp looking.

are they as easy to breed as cons? b/c that why i got em, to breed for fun
what exactly is an EBJD?

EBJD = electric blue jack dempsey

Cons are the rabbits of the ocean. You only need a male a female and water to breed.
Water optional :lol:

How big is the tank?

They're just establishing dominance. It's something that will happen over and over as they grow. Depending on how many females there are, etc.

Cons are also vicious when they have fry. What else do you have in the tank with them?
