A update for anyone interested: Everything is all good with the "pair" of them The "male" is all healed up and they swim together all day long

Could not be happier with the results, but next time I will certainly do big with small to make for a more seamless transition.

Used to believe it can go from months, but now I can tell you they can go for YEARS and not change. Don't know the reason, just observations from some of my pairs.

The one I thought it's a female (b/c it's very aggressive and beating up the smaller one), after 9 months, suddenly decided to kill the smaller 'male', then I throw her in with a much larger one. They paired up and the 'aggressive suppose-to-be' female (2.5") ended up being a male in that spawning relationship.

Some of my mated pair nowadays take 2+ yrs to finally accept each other too ... clowns are wierd things
