Is the one in the back with the speckled face a orange head as well?
I would say they grow pretty slow... Mine had trouble getting food because other fish always grabbed it before he could, so I'm probably not the best source for this information.

Thanks. They are a good species for anyone interested in eartheaters, active and hardy. Most true Geophagus are going to grow around 1/2" per month, I'm not sure about 'G'. steindachneri in particular, I have never kept them.Davey_8313 said:

Not sure how closely related Satanoperca and Geophagus are but they do both sift sand and are peaceful. Satanoperca used to be classified as Geophagus btw.

I picked up some gymnogeo el norte from a member on here and it has some really nice coloring. I'll try to post some pics for you....
I wouldnt recommend any of the gymnogeos cuz they like to have a cool down period which wouldnt be good for the geos.
