Havent posted in a while. Here's a look at the inhabitants of my 265G tank. I have a tendencey to move fish around, so NOT all these fish are in at once. I dont put any m-f pairs together for obvious reasons.
11" male Synspilum (hybrid?) Has been king since Day 1. Fastest growing fish I've ever kept. Unchallenged.
7" White-Orange male Midas (pic right). "Creamsicle" to friends. Testy. Intolerant. Will eventually rule as he gets bigger.
7" Orange Midas. Male. Is the only other fish that will stand up to Mr. C. Unbelievable flowing dorsal fin.
8" Buttikoferi. Female. Not a scratch. Colors make nice contrast. Not as agressive as advertised. Needs mate.
9" Bifasciatus. Male. Backs down from top 3. Wont fight. Beautiful red markings. Looking for mate. Strangely, he and Synspilum are buddies.
7" male Nicaraguense. Recent father to 200 fry. In big tank for a while to give female a break. Tough fish.
6" female Festae. Stunning color. Wont be in this tank long. Waiting for my male to put on some size to breed.
7-8" Lyonsi. Thinking male. Stays high in the tank. Lover not a fighter. Great color, bad pic. Looking for love.
6" Carpintis. Pictures dont do his blue colors justice. Perfect fins. Stays inside terra pot except to feed.
