    interesting... because i orginally got 4 young Macs from a bro.... which the colouration is very good now, with red and black markings along the fins and body. Is just that the 4 are showing similar markings and there isn't any single one which is more colourful than the rest..

    don't think i so suay to get all of the same sex rite?

    the one resting on the gravel looks like a sub-male to me. Need a better picture of it to reconfirm.
