Which cichlids get nuchal humps?

[Kyle Hyde]

I was wondering if there was a list of cichlids that get the nuchal humps. I know about the big ones, but I just learned because of another thread that convicts get them? Are there any other smaller cichlids that get them? Do male blue acaras get the humps like GTs do?

Gymnogeophagus balzanii, Geophagus sp. "Rio Branco", Geophagus sp. "Tapajos Orange Head", Laetacara dorsigera, Hypselecara temporalis..

.. Ok I'll stop now.

C.sajica (T-bar Cichlid, Sajica Cichlid)
C.spiluris (Blue-eyed Cichlid)
P.Scalare (minimal)(Angelfish)

No, Blue Acara males will not get a nuchal hump of noticable size.

L. dorsigera get nuchal humps? Like to see that. My chocolate is starting to show something but it's not really "humpy" like what a trimac would get, he just looks like he's got a lumpy forehead.
