Awe Peter, why you gotta do this. Amazing Daemon's. I'm gonna be driving down to Florida next month. Please pm me your address, and what times you wont be home :naughty:. Just want to make sure you'll be there when I come by :liar:

lol that's a long drive. Going to tour some fish farms?

They are getting bigger and showing some amazing colors. The pectoral filaments on the male reach the end of the caudal peduncle now. He has spawned with both females. I have had a hell of a time trying to track down more of the same size to keep a proper group. None locally and Rapps only has them at 4.5" and isn't expecting larger specimens any time soon. The search goes on... :(

End of next week I get my order of F1 Satanoperca Mapiritensis and F0 Acarichthys Heckelii to finish off each of the groups. Moved all of my fish a couple weeks ago between tanks and setting up another tank this weekend to help thin out stock.

well at least you got a group going already. I'm still looking for some mates for my lone male :(

Said lone male:

I wish. Won't have much time for that. I would like to stop by the Atlanta Aquarium on my way though.

I would leave him by himself or get a large group. The male, especially that size is going to shred the fins of any female. Mine gets so worked up over the presence of other females that he beats on them pretty hard. Hopefully when I find more of the same size that will curb it but I won't know until I more though...

Thanks. Next weekend I'm getting four more, I'm really excited. I still wish I could keep S. Daemon though. So depressing seeing everyone elses...
