CA show tank (newupdate)

[nutty]

I cant help it! I keep returning to this thread and looking at your tank and fish!
I say it again!
One of the nicest tank I ever seen
Very good job sir!
( can you please send it to sweden so I can watch it in person? )

Cheers mate, sometimes i think i may have posted the tank to much, but as long as people appreciate it then thats a good thing. A lot of display tanks you see on forums are planted, i just like to show you don't need plants and loads of c02 for great looking tanks.

Thats a nice tank mate! I love the spotted silver dollars! The multipinosa are ace two...they have both just gone on my wish list, I want some in with my centrals. I didnt think silver dollars would do to well in with centrals, as my silvers are quite nervous.... Great job though, and there are still some centrals lovers left over here.

I was already to sell my maculicauda, i had him netted out, but i just couldn't go through with selling him. Just over a years growth and he's around 10"TL. Here's some photos.

A few shots of my male Argentea, he's packing on some bulk now.

A shot of H Nicaraguense, the colours on her look stunning.

Last is P Guttulatum? Still inconclusive on the validation of this fish.

I've recently put 5 V Regani in there and eventually i'll need the space, i was just thinking ahead. I'll probaly have to move some fish around eventually, just not yet though.

Glad you didn't get rid of the V. maculicauda, he's a stunner. Still can't get enough of this tank.

Ref: - these are my A Multispinosa. I think these are a great little CA Cichlid, very underated. They show lovely yellow jackets when spawning, peaceful and ideal for smaller tanks.

I've had some of these for a while. I bought them not knowing anything about what I was doing - I asked for severums, but after a while - slow as I am - it clicked. I asked around and was told they are commonly known as Rainbow Cichlids. Does this sound right?
I dumped a vid on Youtube if you want to see them.

I wanted to get a pair out of them, but I only ever saw pairing activity in the community tank. I put the four of them into their own tank and they went crazy. They'd race around the tank and smash into the walls. They killed a pleco I put in with them and basically went nuts.

They settled back down when I put them back into the community tank.

Go figure.

I never got them to reproduce.
