Just a few pics of my Fire Red Cherries. I can't seem to get the tank temp down under 78-80 though with the temperatures we've been having, so I guess I shouldn't expect any babies?

Why is it that the mods always have the awesome tanks?

They will probably breed, you never know.
 
I love the fire reds myself, Debbi.
I have a few, all females so far, along with some crystal reds, crystal blacks, some yellow bees, and some cherries in a 10 gal., but I'm getting some more fire reds this week-end.
Yours look great and I like the tank- size ? Got a FTS ?
 
Paul - now don't laugh.....It's a 75G tank. The cherries currently share it only with some of my tank raised sterbai and 2 otos. This was my big L144 breeding tank. I've been slowly moving fish out of it and into other tanks. I'm going to be putting my house on the market....one of these days when it seems like people are beginning to buy homes again. The carpet in this master bedroom needs to be replaced before I put the house on the market. When that happens, I have to tear down this 75G. And I know I won't set it up again. I love the plants in this tank, low tech, easy as pie. So in the meantime, I threw about 75 cherries in there to live quietly. Here's a FTS for you.....

(nobody buy her house so she doesnt tear down the tank!) LOL
 
Nice shrimp and great lookin tank!!
 
When you tear down that tank, let me know if you need someone to take a few crypts off your hands... hahaha. They're HUGE!

That tank is beautiful, and wow, you've got bold shrimp if you can find so many in one locale in a 75g tank! Beautiful little critters though - thanks for the glimpse!
