gorgeous! How big are these now and how big do they get? And how do you know if a female is "holding"?

Thanks all.. Xan they are considered dwarf Mbuna species, Afra Nkhata there average size is 4" sometimes 5" as adults, these guys are just under 2" they are a typical mouth brooder so a slight bulge in the throat area will def incline that a female is holding eggs, as the eggs hatch and when the fry are growing the bulge will def expand, 6 photos down of my fish above you will notice the female holding eggs..
