Here are is the Male Mono and the Female Orino, and I am sure they are a pair now and hopefully they have a spawn soon. I took these pictures with the flash mainly because I took them during the day and the bass move so fast while they are fighting. The Male will flare and circle the Female and then he lifts he up and out of the water a little, then the female swims really fast across the tank. Then they both do circles and fan each other mainly over their little spot that I made for them in the tank. No tubes have dropped yet, so I think they have paired but have not gotten ready to spawn yet. I will soon create a Thread just for the pair when I see more happening between them.:headbang2

Thanks to Seiichi and Apriliarider for help and advice with my bass.:D

Here are the larger growouts...I will have more pictures tonight. My mono in the pictures has a weird pattern with the red in his tail and he has a fourth spot on him. I dont know what sp the 2 spot and other oddball bass are for sure yet. And the last two pictures of the severums are the pair from the large tank that I moved away from the aggressive bass.
