Getting close to update time!
Should come next week, stay tuned...
I had some leftover from previous tank owner. I plan on getting some talapia fillets from Walmart/Costco and feeding them that as a weekly treat.

Here's a quick photo update as not much has changed. They've put on a little size and everyone gets along relatively well w/ a few nips and chases here and there.
This shot highlights the largest syn. Largest Bifa is to the right, he's very camera shy but isn't so when camera is not present. To the left is the smaller midas, I'm thinking it's a female based on growth rate and body shape compared to the larger midas.

It's a possibility. However I'm hoping not since they'll likely destroy everything in the tank or at the least take over half.
Found a little time today so here's an *Almost* 3 month video update:
Didn't mention in the video but the bubblers serve a purpose, my fish were breathing a bit heavy towards end of water change cycle. This added aeration and additional water movement. They seem tons happier.

Bifa looking good today so showcasing him on today's post:
Love the tank. I would really like another big tank for some of these big CA's.
So far so good!
The hierarchy seems to be working well. The alpha Midas is preoccupied with the other Midas and leaves everyone else alone. Largest syn and bifa face off every now and then but doesn't last long as there's always a Midas around to break things up.
