Nice pics, they really came out great! The first one of the "nasty" fish looks like a Trigger fish (saltwater)...from the looks of the mouth and lips!
 
1. how come you dont mention the glass cat? nice looking fella.
or is it a glass knife? or am i confused.. [most likely the third option].

2. its good to see a rtbs can get along with the nicaraguans because that how it will be soon at my house.
 
The glass cat is easily over 5 years old. I have two out of Seven that i originally bought together. They have managed to last through all types of tank mates from hundreds of tetras in a 150gallon tank originally to probably a dozen different types of cichlids at one point or another. Whoever says that they dont get over 4-5" was wrong cause my carpinte is over 8" and the glass cat is almost just as long. The convict is 3 years old and a breeding machine like most convicts. Inch for inch i think the convict is one of the toughest fish around. ive used my pair for dithers and targets in breeding midas tanks, a buttikoferi tank, right now the pair shares a tank with a fenestratum, a carpintis, a turq. severum and until a few days ago a juvenile midas. thansk for the comments guys!
 
dont know my saltwater fish no i wouldnt know but, when its in a good mood its color will give some saltwater fish some competition in the color department.
