Awesome tank and fish. I wanted a sa biotope a while back but never got around to putting in the finishing touches.

You're right ... but so far, it's working out just fine. Several pairs have been spawning which is a good sign. I'm keeping a careful watch on things and if I sense a problem arising from the numbers of fish present, I will "thin things out".

@30sec are those Heckelli? Mine are even 1/3 of as nice as those.

Yes, they're heckelii.

The festivums will still breed like a clock when it's really crowded. Any signs from the heckelii?

Looks great...

Thanks Matt. The heckelii do display to one another, but I haven't got the tank set up to accomodate their spawning requirements.
