They look great! The color on the biggest one is really popping. Guianacara is looking good too

Thanks Pete when you had your guianacara were they aggressive? Cause mine are lol. It's male and female pair and they are always fighting with the red head pair. My male red head no longer has a bottom streamer and I think it's because of the guianacara lol

Temp: 84*F
water parameters: Ph: 6.4, 0 nitrates, 0 nitrites, 0 ammonia, basically all you need to keep retros. The most important thing for them is a sandy substrate, tons of oxygen, and a really fast current since they come out of the rapids in the rio tocantins in brazil.

very nice

Thank you

So discus would not be a good tank mate?

No I don't think discus would like the fast water current. Could always set up another tank for retros

The problem is getting ur hands on some of the fish. No one seems to have them.
