I've seen them listed under a few different names: Widebar Silver Dollar, Black Bar Silver Dollar, Emperor Blue Hooks. I believe their scientific name is Myleus Schomburgkii, but I've seen other varities of SDs listed under that scientific name, so not really sure.

Recent feeding video. I added a chocolate cichlid and a green terror since the last video I posted, but most of the other fish are the same from when I originally stocked the tank.
Hard to believe it's been 10 years since I set it up. Time flies.

Thanks for the kind words.
In regards to the CLs, I still have them. They had already turned in for the night when I filmed that video. They sleep in the black ABS pipe fittings under the driftwood stumps. Just like old people, they seem to go to bed earlier and earlier the older they get. The largest one I got from a guy who had him for 10 years and I've had him for close to 10, so he's at least 20. But yeah, I have to film at night, otherwise the glare coming off the tank is brutal.
But with all the commotion and the smell of food in the water, they eventually woke up. This clip was filmed just a minute or two after the previous video.
I've noticed there seem to be a lot more large fish than large tanks. ?
