I have 2 males. This is my other male. It's odd how these guys you can't distinguish the sex like normal dovii (spots in opposing fins, dots above the lateral line, etc.). These you almost have to strictly vent. Females can also be covered in spots. I plan on only keeping one. This is the one I'll probably keep. While I like the color more of the first one I posted, this one I believe has a better overall shape to it and it's much more outgoing.

I'm excited to see them get large as well. A couple buddies of mine have some as well but I think my lighter colored male is the largest of them so far. He's over 6". The other one I have is only around 4.5" and the others I've seen from this same group are around 4.5-5"

Yeah I want to see them when they get to be real monsters!
How’s their attitude? Are they going to be psychotic glass bangers or they more laidback?

Well they're small now. Still not too outgoing. But common for younger dovii. Id imagine they'll be just like regular dovii when it comes to agression
