Those are handsome fish!
What sort of set up are they in? Tank mates?

Nice pics Mark , the one in the last pic has got to be a male , it has a longer snout and seems to be sharper in colour ?

They are in a 7ft - 250 gallon tank with 16 clown loaches, histrionica's, Kubotai's and a few Schistura's. As well as those there are big barbs and rasboras.

Yeah definitely the longer nose and at certain times the big fleshy lips do seem to swell and are visibly bigger than normal.

Awesome Emperors,

I have a group of about 6 that look just like that. Except for one I suspect is an alpha female that is bright golden with jet black markings. Will try to get some photos up this weekend.
