Just got a new light on my tank so played around with the camera and got some better pics this time so I figured I would post them. Thanks for looking at my fish.
NIce cichla. Watch out...them monster cats grow quick. Way faster than cichla. Make sure he's not gonna be able to eat your cichla. That aro will grow about 3x faster than the cichla if fed well.
the aro doesnt seem to be interested in food as much as the cichla. he actually eats about half as much as they do then his belly is full and he shows no interest in more food. but his growth isnt quite as fast as theirs. hopefully it will only be another month or two before i get their "home" built. (hint: watch for a new DIY tank thread to pop up)
