This is just some pics of my Salvini's and their Aquarium, I posted Earlier on JumpinJoeFish's "JDvsSalvini" that I watch these guys Hunt(there are four of them) Kinda like Raptors, sorta, very entertaining to watch these lil' guys!​

probably the fish behind his hand

btw, that is probably the most ideal setup i can think of for fish that size. good job :

Great looking setup, perhaps a little too crowded for my liking but it's great for the fish I'm sure.

What are the sexes of your 4 Salvini, and are there any other tank mates?

Thanks guys, found the wood in local river, fishing has it's perks in the Aquaria trade too!

the snagroot does take up space, that is a downside, but it is very natural for the Salvini. I believe, so far, that I have two Males and two females, but again the snagroot gives them a lot of cover so they are all very dark in color. Also still small, largest may be 2" tops. I am looking to get a pair, remove others if possible, and enjoy the free fishfood and share w/ friends and/or LFS. There are some L270's and Tiger barbs to help the attitude, a little...

That was why I asked, while there's a lot of cover I presume a pair or two would still wreak reasonable havoc.

Tiger barbs will slowly start disappearing as the Salvini reach 4-5" too
