Nice pictures Bill, great selection of fish. Thank you for sharing!

 

[MonteSS]

Thanks!

It's only an old 1.3 MP cam that takes better pics than any more expensive cams I have tried. Would be much better if I set it up with extra lights or external flash.

Thanks Pete.

Funny thing is I bought two Nics at about 1.5" from the LFS over a year ago. Male turned out great looking, but the female is pretty drab. The are very bonded pair. They go through all the breeding behavior but wont spawn. I should get this nice male a better lookin female to spread the good genes from both.

The 75g unheated tank has That male and three females from Rapps. I also have two more smaler ones from Ken that I am not sure of sex.

It also has Three G Labiatus Yerbalito from Ken that I think are a male and two females. The largest of these three is getting nice colors in the dorsal and tail.

This smaller one has less color but more pearling and is most aggresive fish in tank.

Also have some baby Oblongum leftovers and six Pepper cory. Tank will be thinned out in future as needed.

Nice fish and tanks!
What are your plants and how do you maintain them?

Thanks, but they are the low maintainence plastic variety.

[bertolli]

hahahaha I wasn't sure... they look very realistic

 

[Jumbie]

Plastic variety, they are the best LOL.

 

[toddnbecka]

Some good-looking fish there. I like the leucistic HRP, definitely better than the usual red-eyed albino's IMHO. I'm picking up some Gymnogeo's to mix with my chanchito's soon.
Love the hollow wood; I think my plastic plants came from the same source.
