Hi,

Picking up a 75g tomorrow night and planning on doing a severum tank. Never kept them before and wanted to give them a try. Will order from Rapps so here's what he has:

Heros appendiculatus
Heros cf. efasciatus (wild)
Heros sp. Atabapo (F1 juves)
Heros sp. Inirida (wild)
Heros sp. Rotkeil (F1)


Tank will be a display tank in our downstairs living room so I'd want something interesting and colorful. If you have any of the sevs he carries, post them up!!!

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks:)
 
the rotkeils are the red headed ones but take a long time to color up from what ive heard. But he has great fish. Getting a F1 or wild severum you cannot be disappointed. colors are so much more intense.

I would say either Atabapo or Rotkeil, the rot are the best colour in the list from personal experience, but they can be a little unruly. Which ever you go for though i must say that you made a feking good choice picking sevs as between them and polys there isn't a better looking fish to be had anywhere.
 
Got a Gold Sev. Hes about 7 months old and just now starting to show some reds in the fins. Hes cool! Eats like a pig and is out swimming most of the time. Great display fish im my opinion.
