Here's my rhytisma. I have wanted robertsoni for so long but never kept them. That's about to change!

Nice rhytima! You'll love robertsonis. They look much better in person then in pics.
Wow, I have some small 1" to 1.5" rhytisma, I can't wait until they get larger!
Cichlidfish: right now, Ihave some alfari in a 125 with some rostratus. The rostratus were in the tank first and then the alfari were added. The alfari are growing fast, and I started noticing some nicks in the fins of the rostratus, but now things have seemed to mellow out. I anticipate having to move one of the species. THere are also some lyonsi, regani, godmani and a pair of nicaraguense in the same tank, they are all juvenile fish at 2"-3" except the nicaraguense (Breeding pair)

Thanks fishymike, and I am hoping to mix my rostratus w/ my robertsoni. I'm a little worried, of mixing the two-even in a 180g. My robertsoni can be pretty aggressive. Nice alfari and I see a rostratus in the back ground. Do you have any more pics of the rostratus?
Update pic of my rostratus. This is one of the slowest growing cichlids I have owned. My robertsoni grew much faster.
Got a shot of some of my rostratus tonight:
Also my pair of altifrons:

Great pics Fishymike! How big are your rostratus? Looks like they are starting to get some color. Are you hoping to get some pairs? Also, very nice looking pair of altifrons you have there.
