I have 5 robertsoni...1 is a 4 yr old female and the others I've had for about 8 months or so. I believe of these 4 I have 2 males and 2 females.

here is one of the males...the 2 males are roughly 3.5-4"



here is the adult female...approx. 6"









and the red devil...bought at lfs that got a batch of pure devils from Rapps

Awesome robertsoni and RD.

What's the max size on the robertsoni?

thanks

I believe male robertsoni max. out around 8-9" and females around 6-7". My 4 yr. old female is probably around 5.5-6". she might get a little bigger but I don't expect her to grow much more length-wise.

Thanks for the info.

My guess is their agression level is similar to Firemouths.

Have you succeeded in breeding them?

thanks for the comments all. Stormy, glad you finally found a devil that you like.

No I haven't been able to breed the robertsoni yet but as I said I've only had the juvies for about 8 months. I knew of a guy on another forum that kept a group together for a little over a year and never saw pairing/spawning behavior from them. He got rid of all but one after he'd had them for just over a year. I'm wondering if they might take longer to mature than most other CA's. I'll be keeping these guys for a lot longer than a year if that's what it takes.
