Hard to see because they’re not very big and they won’t stay out if I move closer. Still have 7 but I think the 55g is to crowded for them. I have 2-3 females so I will be considering rehoming a couple of the males I think.
Males are the solid grey. Females are lighter and barred.

I’ve had the original four just over two years now and not quite two for the other group. I think sexual maturity takes a bit longer.

The male Sumbu while initially the recipient of aggression by the multis is now showing to be the more aggressive. He goes where ever he wants and is intent on catching one juvenile multi in the middle of the tank. His colors are definitely better seen in the new tank.49227E16-2235-46BE-B4DC-F504B8FC1227.jpeg

Moved to @aaronfeeney. Empty 55g with plenty of time to decide what to do with it.
Thread closed.
I saw that aquarium paradise had julidochromis dickfeldi… just incase you were interested.

Dom will also be bringing in new lights ( hygger brand) in the next two weeks. He worked a deal with the manufacturer so they will be cheaper than normally seen.
