For your viewing pleasure I offer a video of two male E. melanogenys displaying for the ladies in their newly redecorated home. I find it interesting that the two males have distinct markings in their dorsal fin allowing me to differentiate between them. There are other males in the group, at least two others. I am curious if they will be equally uniquely marked when in full breeding dress.
I purchased ten Enantiopus melanogenys juveniles in April of 2016 at roughly 1.5 inches in length. They grew fairly quickly once I put them into a 75 gallon aquarium. There are now only nine of them, but they are between 3.5 and 5 inches long. And, after all of this time anxiously waiting, they are colorful and fun to watch. It was a long test of my patience. I have to say the payoff was worth the wait.
