A few shots of my Lyonsi

[Jimmy Side eye]

Got myself a group of 5 Lyonsi 3 years ago at around the 2" mark. I now have 3 survivers between 7 and 10". 1 male 2 females.

My opologies for the scratches and water marks.

Male

Females

I had a bit of a panic with the male a few months ago. He somehow injured his jaw and acquired a crooked mouth. I was worried this was a permanent injury, but hes righted himself and looks 95% back to normal.

 

[wow]

I have to see a full tank shot, haha

Ok, i will have to borrow the bro in laws camera for an up to date full tank shot

But heres a shot of the tank theyre in, from last year. The tank is 96x36x30" LxWxH

Its a bit more crowded these days as most of the fish are now young adults. I dont get any problems with aggresiion tho, only the largest Carpinte male, and the Costarican redhead pair play up from time to time, but do no damage really. Its quite a calm community really, considering most of the species i have listed in my signiature are in there.

I'll try and get some updated full tank shots up before the end of the week.

Cheers, heres some pics of the CRRH's from a few months ago, sorry about the poor quality. **** camera.

Male is around 10" and the female 7". These are F2, the F parents were bought from Rapps.

You might be asking 'wheres the red heads then' LOL. The Red heads never passed on from the wild parents. Must have been something in their natural diet/enviroment. Heres a pic of the F1 parents to my pair. There is some red visable.

Good looking fish!

If anyone's interested in the Virginia Beach area, there's a terrific big male lyonsi at the Jungle!
