Ed,

Is that a picture of the pair that Ken from Fishfarm collected from the wild? I would really like some offspring from a pair like that, but apparently Ken hasn't been able to breed his yet.

Hey Ed - do you have a picture of your female? I'm trying to figure out if the two biggest ones in my group are males. They don't have a large hump yet but are showing a lot of colors on the fins.

I'm setting up a 125 his week for my rarer Uruguay fish, we'll see if that will help get them going. They have been crammed in a 40 breeder with a bunch of other stuff since December. Ken

I can clean out my 125 anytime
