I have pairs of bimacs, lyre tails, square backs, red bars and dispars. They all get along. There some occasional showing off by the males but that’s about it.

So no issues between the bimacs and purple square? Always wanted to add these but was worried about my bimacs.

And of course a gratuitous photo

Going with female.
Going to be interesting to see if the bimac fully transitions with the 3 female & 1 transitioning Lyretails I added tonight!!

will update on this thread!
 
But you do see the partial transition correct?
It’s hard to see in the pics. The male gets a dark spot on its dorsal fin. The marks on the face look like the start of a transitioning. Time will tell.

No, they just periodically show off for each other but pretty much ignore the other species. The male square back is gorgeous. Female is kinda plain. That also looks like a female.
