I have had some of these guys for about a month or 2 now, and I am very impressed with them. Peaceful, active and colorful. They actually shoal together too and never leave more than about 2" between them.
I managed to pick up 7 of them for about $10 and they looked like this
As you can see they have potential. I have only ever seen 5" or so ones before that were beatiful. and every time I saw them offered for sale they were more than 10 dollars each. A friend of mine worked at a store and nobody had bought the small ones because they were pretty dull so I struck up a deal to give them a good home in my 120g. I have not regretted it, looks like I may even have the red locality. I saw how beautiful they had become recently so I snapped a few pics. I have some very round looking females too now, they range from about 2"-4"
