How long have you kept them together? And do they fight or jostle for space? Interesting that they park side by side peacefully from the pic.

these pics were taken when they first arrived in my tank.
Have since transfered them into a blue 422fgt in hope of a miracle breeding.
Now in the fgt, there are parking at each corner.

Good luck! Providing caves should help and if nothing else, you have got 2 beautiful specimens.

On fish A there is a decent bulge of the body just after the operculum odontodes, visible against the pectoral fins. But fish B also has this but a little less pronounced. The only other significant difference I can see is in pic 4, the fish on the left seems to have a more angular body whereas the other is more rounded. Anything to read into?

If you could get a pic of their vents, I think that would help.
