They will get pretty big and fierce. I will have to give them their own tank here soon.

Like underwater missiles. I had a group of them a couple of years ago. Blazing fast, but mine weren't too mean. They sure look mean though! Kind of the malawi version of your Lepidios.
How's your nkambae aggression Jon? I'm still wanting some and I've heard they can be a handful. Supposedly need some fast dither fish to keep them off each other.

currently running 1200 gallons!

So far so good. I have the pair in a 75g tank and the only time they mess with each other is at feeding. Their colors have gotten more intense the past couple of weeks. It makes me want to empty my 125g and move them there.
