looking great (at least as far as I can see from the subdued lighting) 
can't wait to see them in person. too bad you couldn't get those caribes
makes we want to get another piranha, but I'd probably go w/ a red spilo or manny this time

Thanks. Actually, the lighting isn't all that subdued. I forgot I had the two old 3 foot lights. It's just dark because of the black back and sand. I'm cool with not having the Caribe, although they are pretty bad ass. You'll dig the red bellies in person. Jonathan has a few Serras he wants to sell.
Here are a few more pics:
They look great, love the black sand. Its funny they have always bit off each others dorsal fins. I wonder if they will ever stop that.
Thanks for the comments everyone!
I almost wish I had a lighter substrate so their red would show up more. I'm not changing the substrate again though. Yeah, there are 4 or 5 with damage to their dorsal. I only had the plant and the two rocks on the right in the tank for most of the time, and they all just hung out on that one side of the tank. Before I took the pictures, I added that plant on the left, and now they use the whole tank for their space, so we'll see if that decreases agression a bit.
The suprising thing was that I talked her into having pygos in the dining room
I just want to have the 125 and 260 running. I need to sell my KML flowerhorn and take his 75 gallon down. I need to take my 28 down too. I'm looking to sell the FH, a 55 gallon and stand, and my 28 gallon bowfront and stand.
