i love salvinis. that is going to be a bunch of little fish with big attitudes. the females you get from the fry should be interesting. female cons have the red belly and female salvinis have alot of color too. the males might look like yellow cons. just a guess. good luck with your fry

Female salvinis have a blue mark on their gills. Males don't have that. Otherwise at breeding time or during maturity both can be equally colourful.

females also have a flower on their dorsal fin. my female has blue all the time. it just gets crazy blue when she is ready to lay eggs. those females are going to be very nice. and the males are going to be mini demonfish. i am trying to get my female to breed with a texas. mini flowerhorns:headbang2
