Those are some great ones. What's the name of the cream, beige, and peachy shades?

I had a hunch, but wasn't entirely sure. I've got a single male kenyi, and he's a vibrant yellow - I've been wondering if the females would have that lovely peachy hue. For now, I've just got the one male, but I might consider introducing some females to the mix later on.

Here's my guy:




Edit: Just did some quick research - apparently, females are blue and males are yellow. I'm guessing yours are still too young to have developed their adult colours? To be honest, I was really hoping it would've been something different - I just love the colouring on those fish.

I'm pretty sure Pseudotropheus lombardoi - Kennyi can change sex, so that's probably what's happening here, they're switching sex.

Your fish are thriving - those fins, the colors, the muscle tone, it's all top-notch. The tank setup is really impressive too, I remember seeing your tank post in part 1 and it's clear you're doing something right.
