My new favorite fish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Already doin it. Moved the sand all over. Has two flower pots and a bunch of fake plants he moves around. Sometimes I move a plant infront of the pots, he has it cleared out within 30 seconds. He's a really fun fish.

He is gorgeous ........and well , anyone would not be happy after being stuck in a cover with limited space and thrown all over before being welcomed in a new place by a new pair of hands..
The Amphilophus in general and the Midevils in particular are very personable and dont miss a chance to assert their dominance.
I have a midevil , which puts a peacock bass in place when the PB tries to be atrocious.
Congrats on the new buy and a nice specimen as well.
What size tank is he in and any other tank mates

I see he didn't waste no time lol one of the most personable fish besides an Oscar I've owned. Complete asses when it comes to tank mates but enjoyable nontheless.

Thanks! I couldn't be happier with him. I actually got him in a straight across trade for the female dovii in my avatar. He's a f1 from a wc Rapps pair my buddy has. He was 9.25 inches when I put him in the tank on july 27th. The pic below is him seconds after I put him in, couldn't resist turning the lights on to get a pic. You can also see how much his nuchal hump has grown since.
I know what you mean about the dominance! First night my trimac got over the divider. I woke up and the rd had him pinned in a corner on the bottom almost laying on him. Fortunately beyond some superficial marks and torn fins the trimac was ok.
They were temporary roommates, the trimac is now in its own 125, the devil is in a 90 with a fx6 for now, eventually I'll move him into a bigger 6 foot tank. 3 tanks, 3 fish, gotta love Americans!

I get a funny look every time someone comes over. Wood across the top to keep them from jumping out, water marks all down the side from getting splashed, and scratched glass from teeth. I keep telling myself I'm going to get something that doesn't destroy its tank
