Cool vids Peter!!! Glad they are doing so well for you.

Is it just me or are the Dimerus just a really cool fish.

I'm afraid that when Ken gets back my number of Uruguay fish is going to explode with out any breeding occuring:eek:.

Love those dimerus. It looks like they produce a ton of fry for their size.

Definitely. This is their 4th spawn since I got them less than two months ago, and every spawn was huge considering their size.
 
I've never looked into Dimerus before. Thanks Peter! That is a really nice looking tank to.
 
:WHOA: WOW that's alot of fry from the dimerus. Very nice.
 
Hey Peter, great looking fish. I really like the tank setup for the dimerus, especially the lighting. Do you know which population they are? Bella Union? I regret not bringing any back, they are a nice species.

THOSE CEBIALS ARE COOL
 
wow they have alot of fry you said that this is the 4th batch in a few months you had them ? what do you do with all the fry ? raise and sell ?
