I call him “Smooth Operator” what a stud. He once bred with 2 females in the same tank at the same time . He was like the only male with 8plus females around him. He kept everyone of them in check. I have video I’m going to try and upload of him.

Better pics taken from the smaller pair in 75 gallon.

Original grow out pair in 125g divided with about 40-50 fry at 1”. Need tank space lol .

Pair in 75 gallon. Male put in some size now! Bigger than the female. Like the 4th spawn some fry from previous batch still in tank. Very prolific pair

tank mates I moved in a 75 gallon. Ended up being 1 male and 3 females . He’s paired up with the bigger one . They are getting ready for a spawn

Here’s an update on the pair from January. Took out the other tank mates and gave them the 125 for themselves. Great parents! Had a scare with the female one time . Make bear her down before ripped off her tail during a previous spawn . It has then grown back and they are back to normal.

these pics here were taken last week when tank mates were still in the tank. I’ve since removed the rest of the tank mates during a water change into a separate tank.Great parents! Both male and female were amazing protecting the fry in the tank with 4 other festaes.

Kept a Group of grow outs from November . A pair formed unexpectedly and for their first time spawning not a bad batch. Male is about 5”-6” Female about 5”

These were the biggest growouts I had from my original Rio Esmeraldas pair in page 1 of this thread.
