Thanks bro I really appreciate the compliments, I do try to pick my stock carefully and do the best I can with my pic taking.

SICK PICS AND STOCK BRO! WOW!

Thanks bro I appreciate that, can't wait till they put on some size and really come into their own!

wow! you have some great photography skills

Thanks a lot man I appreciate the compliment! I truly do I try to do my best with the pics!

yeah some amazing photography skills here love there pictures and your FTS is stunning!

Thanks bro, I appreciate that! I've changed up the tank a little so I've got to upload the way it looks now so you guys can tell me which way looks better!

Exactly this!

What is the cichlid, in the first series, orange with balck spots, between gar pix?

Thanks man! As for that fish it's a Herichthys bocourti cichlid they get pretty impressive but I sold him before he got really sweet looking.


I'll try to add a FTS for you guys and a video later today. Thanks again everyone for the compliments and comments! In the mean time here's some pics of two new pick ups I just got today L75/Peckoltia sabaji/Para Pleco from OceanStateAquatics.

Has TFH contacted you about using your pictures in their magazine?

Nah, but there's actually a lot better photographers on here than I, Mo and Terra are just a few names that come to mind. Thanks a lot for the compliment and comment bro.

Thanks bro I appreciate the compliment! I like the new Paras/L75's too, those spots against the white sand look awesome. Plus in my opinion their spots compliment the Dat's stripes. I also want to admit that even though I don't have photoshop I do use a free program for basic editing. Though that's very limited as the program is pretty poor in my opinion and any changes using it causes massive noise in the pic.


Here's a vid of the tank as it is now. I apologize for the video being poor the scratches on the tank and the Royal Pleco poop. I can't seem to find a good free HD editor to upload my vids to my computer. Hence the poor quality of the images despite them being recorded in HD. I did no editing to this video except for the addition of the crossfade, splicing 2 videos together and the addition of the music.

I put you on a par with Mo and Brandon (greenterra ).

A couple of very big steps above the good photographers in here ( imight be missing someone, no offense meant ).

Thanks I appreciate that and yep Xander is definitely one of the best photographers on here. There's actually a lot more but you don't see them on the site posting pics too often any more, Chaitika for one.

What about that Siniperca,do you still have it?

The Siniperca passed away, first fish I ever had die on me because of overeating as far as I can tell. He didn't choke mind you just ate 3 shrimp in one sitting laid on the substrate breathing heavy and then turned almost white. He was gasping like he couldn't breathe but as far as I could tell there was nothing obstructing his respiratory system. I had seen him do it before when he was over fed and I tried my best to stop him but he was a more efficient predator than anything else in the tank at the time including my Armatus. Didn't shy away from my hand which I tried to use to block him from snatching food but he was simply too quick. It's a shame as the Siniperca was one of my faves straight predator with not a hint of aggression. Just a machine with one singular purpose to devour all that fit in his mouth.

Great stock, past and present!

Thanks bro I appreciate the compliment and comment!

my computer loaded that in .07 seconds

Lol! I'm betting it loaded fast but not .07 seconds fast. It's just a warning I use to use when dial up was more common and still do just in case.
