I wanted to share a couple of pics of my Dorsigera. I just got them Tuesday they are in one of the planted tanks with my Rams.

You're keeping a really nice stock these days, Tom. The Dorsigera have great shape and color. The aquascaping makes the tank look very natural. How big are the Dorsigera?

Thanks Al these guys are about 1.75". I'm transitioning back to SA stock and getting away from the more aggro CAs. The tank was a lot fuller about a week ago. With CO2 everything grows very fast the water sprite has to be thinned out every two weeks so I stuck the fake plant in the corner to cover the UV until it grows back. The crypts and Vals grow a little slower and the anubius doesn't seem to care about the CO2. The Cabomba takes off like a rocket too, you can't see in the pic but I have duckweed covering the top of the tank that also needs to be scooped out once a month.
 
Beautiful little cichlid.
 
Thanks guys!
