If you keep 2-3 males at the same tank....you will see them color up even more when they flare at each other.
It is better to keep them as a group 8~12 pieces to see the full beauty
I have 2 male and 3 female so far.

You make me worry... i have 3 'female'without yellow head but with yellow tail.

Haha..Lets hope that what you say doesn't come true..

Base on some on line searching, someone said that female also can have yellow tail and colour on fins... I am betting on what they say is true, and at least i stand a chance to breed this beautiful fish.

I agree with what you say.

It could be same fish but from different pick up point.

Heard someone saying, only black bee has whitish-blue margins at dorsal fin and anal fins.

May be expert can tells......
