Wow! The female ornatum lights up, the colors on her are awesome 
What happen to the male Ornatum dorsal fin (top fin)? What size tank are they in? What do you feed them, what do you keep the temperature at? PH?

Thanks guys! Really excited!
I will post pics of all the stuff i feed with, my water is ordinary tapwater, i change 25% weekly, from time to time i skip one change and make a bigger one after ca 14 days instead. Dont measure water chem, temp around 27 degrees Celsius.
Dry foods:
frozen:
I Also feed a kit of green in form of sin king and floating algea pellets, and some veggies as well. Ornatums love the greens as well.

Nope sorry dude, i have found that it varies a lot between water change and even within 24h, so to measure nów and then actually doesnt give me much info, że instead of messing with water parameters I observe my Fish and if they seem healthy i just keep going as i have.

They arę lovely Fish! Minę have not been that aggressive, not even when spawning. could be because of the smaller tank mates (amatitlania nigrofasciata), sure they chase away Fish, but only if they Come to close.
