GLA = GreatLakesAquaria. It's an independent forum not affiliated with any particular club that I know of. The first forum I joined when I got into fish. :)

An additional fish nerd forum but they do more than cichlids. I posted on the guys thread for you to maybe get you two coordinated. His champ is unsexed so far though.

No idea when they will get to full coloration. But, I've seen them at 5-6" & only starting to color up.
