Carpintis and Bifasciatus

[cavamart]

I've never been one for a species only tank and I've been in search of a good combination to be housed together on black gravel. A mellow Carpintis Vontehillo pair and a group of Bifas Rio Chacamax seem to add a simple blue yellow red combination that works for me on black gravel. I tried to get a few pictures of the color combination.

Beautiful combo !

Thanks, hopefully the combo will last a while. The Carpintis are ready to breed any time. I hope they wont require the whole tank to do so.

Very cool looking fish! I love the color schemes together! Texas are definitely one of my favorite fish but finding something to help compliment them is even better. Good luck with the breeding!

Great combo...That male carpintis is amazing! How many bifa are in the group?

Thanks! 6 Bifas, all about the same size, 4-4.5".
