Nice fish but both the severums look like males, as they both have the face masks.

It's the broad side of the severums face you look at... like between the eyes. Not the cheeks.. I'm pretty sure all decent quality severums have the squiggles on their cheeks.

They've been digging a pit over the last few days.. so I think they're going to spawn.

They could be gay lol, here is a pic of my breeding pair, just about to lay eggs in the next couple of days or so.:
Female with here eggs:

Male garding every where:

Mine are about 8-9" how about yours?

Only about 4'' I'd say..

The male spawned with a different female twice, but in a community tank and the eggs were eaten..

This female wont stop flaring this guy down, and she's been digging a pit, so I'm hoping for the best..

The female that spawned with the male before had squiggles on her cheeks.. just not between the eyes..

Here's a picture of the females face I took a long time ago.. this is the one that spawned with the male
