Thanks Steve...the white lips can be hard to come by...I am very grateful to have these 4...possibly looks like 2 pairs...

Yup don't see them very often, I think you are only about the 3rd person I know of that has them. Really cool fish, one of these days I'll end up with one myself  :)

I think 1 of the draw backs with them is that they are slow to reach sexual maturity...like up to 3 yrs...most people get bored well before then, me included, but I am committed this time round lol...to buy a mature group would be very pricey...there was 8 on here recently for $275 @ 3-4" if I remember correctly...a reasonable price but prob still at least a yr or 2 away from breeding size...
