O boy i hope the two don’t eventually breed i don’t need that aggression in my tank. while we are talking about sexing these fish any thoughts on the sex of these guys. I’m pretty sure the firemouth is a male not sure about the GT

The Convict is nothing more than a brightly colored (good-looking) male specimen. Males often show these types of pretty blues/reds on their fins, when they’re confident and comfortable in their tanks. I’ve had many males in the last that display these exact colors when healthy. Nice fish!
 
I am thinking there is a trace of sajica in the convict because of how dark the middle bar is and the red in the fins. Predominantly convict though.
