My male was gifted to me so I don’t know/remember what specific sp he is. I know what I am leaning towards but don’t want to influence the ideas just yet.
My heros infatuation!

Would like to see the face and underside/lower body a bit more clearly than it's showing on my screen, but I'm thinking liberifer.
This is liberifer. They’re the only Heros that have red or orange dots arranged in horizontal lines. They’re also the the only Heros with tiny freckles instead or large spots or striation in the face.
By the looks of it, it’s likely a male, though I have seen a handful of females that show some freckling. I’ve also had a male that had none. So it’s a pretty accurate way of sexing but not 100%.

. I agree as this was what I was leaning towards. What caused me to doubt is the picture on fish base doesn’t look like mine but he does match the description.
Now to figure out if he is compatible with my H. Notatus female

Here are some better of his face. He swims right up and looks at me.
Ah, that is what I was going to find was how the H. Notatus spawn. Might have to go looking for another.
Update: moved the H. Notatus and H. Liberifer to the 220 and the turquoise and gold to the 120. The H. N. and H. L. are doing much better with the SDs than on their own. The SD could care less about tank mates at feeding time but even the Heros back off at first.
Newest Heros addition arrived yesterday around 5pm. Still a little skittish. Flashlight picture from this morning. It's around 4in size.
