This little guy was out and about today for some reason. Don't see much of it normally, as it's close to the smallest in the tank so I snapped some photos.

Anyone know how to sex these guys? Odd photo as it was just shooting off, fins really aren't clamped.

I was like WHAT How do you forget you own an Umbee??!! How long have you had him?

Nice fish! Love the pics and the Argentea best out of your collection IMO. I just love Argentea. My little guys eyes are Pink with a little blue dot on the Iris. I hope his eyes get blue like that!
 
Well, they were this big when I got them.

I lost one when it was still really small, then had this one and one twice it's size. Lost the larger one when my roommate unplugged a filter, then plugged it back in a few days later (also lost a indo dat and 12" G. brasiliensis...idiot). This one's just slipped under the radar I guess. Came back from a two week trip yesterday and there it was.
 
Very nice! Send her over with a female escondido. ;)
The male festae is a brute! He grew from 3" to that size in ~1 year?!
