I haven't taken any recent pics of the beani lately as I have to sit in front of the tank for an hour trying to get them to sit still to snap a couple shots.

They are all doing great otherwise! Not much growth about 2" MAX. They don't seem to want to grow. Even doing 2-50% WC a week. Feeding three times a day and keeping the temp at 84. Oh well I guess it will just take time.


Thanks for all the comments!

that syns is really coloured up.
esp. the fins.

how is the black belts aggression?
is it intense at all?

The Syn is more aggressive than the BB. The BB can't compete with the Syns aggression. The BB doesn't even chase a 2.5" fish he is the most easy going Vieja I have ever kept besides the time he killed my Bleekeri.

Oh and the Synspilum is up for sale pretty soon. Along with maybe my other synspilum. PM if interested.

Here's some pics of my Other Synspilum. This one is slightly bigger and is more aggressive. An BY far more pink!

Which Syn I have 2?
Yeah I had problems at first between one of my syns and the Black Belt but things have sub-sided for now.

I can only imagine what is going to happen when I introduce my 7 inch Hartwegi to them. The Hartwegi is a Killer and has killed a Salvini, BIG male convict, a 5 inch motaguense and others like pleco's and cories.

Hopefully they will all get along in my 410 when I get my stand for it. It will stock all my Vieja possibly, my Dovii, and My 3 Beani.

Here's my 2 Hartwegi the larger one is currently 7" and the smaller is 5"
