Just got a male and female carpinte from Jeff Rapps and decided to a take pictures of everyone. this stocklist is very funny and there is a good possibility it will not work but I have another tank to move things around if there are problems. Heres the stock...

6 Firemouth cichlids(2")
5 buenos aires tetras(2")
1 Midevil(9")
2 carpinte (5")

The midevil pretty much leaves the young firemouths alone chasing every once in a while. The firemouth's are comftorable enough to display to eachother and show off their stunning red throats. The carpinte did get chased around a bit but there are plenty of over hangs and hiding places that the carpinte can outflank the large devil. This red devil has a very even temperament and although she chases it's rarely more than half the tank and she spends most of her time in her cave on the far right. The tank has come along nicely but I am still adding things. Anyways here are the pics.

The fish look great. I like the sand too. Do you have a full tank shot? Nvm, you just updated.... I love the overall setup. You have plenty of caves and areas to take cover. Great job on the setup and I hope the stock continues to work out for you.
 
Nice fish, they all look great plenty of cover too.
 
Nice pics and good looking setup!

Thank you very much. I am crossing my fingers on the stock too. Although all these species will almost definatly not be sharing this tank in the future no matter how things go. It would end up being too many fish IMO.

Nice. Love the aquascaping. You shouldnt have any trouble with that stocklist in that tank at all.

Thanks, I hope the stock works also.

Yea there are two caves the devil can hide in and many other small caves she can't reach.

great looking tank, it must me murder trying to net a fish in there.
Hopefully I won't have too any time soon. It would be a pain in the arse catching anything in there.

Nice looking tank and fish. Is that your tegu. If so it is very nice looking also.
Thanks, yea the avatar is of my tegu, my pride and joy. She's not allowed near the fish tank considering she has a taste for live fish.
