You sir are an artist, Nice work!

Only with raising the fish, but not with the aquascaping. I've never been worth a flip at making a beautiful tank like some of you guys.

Looks like your gonna have fry soon! the one F's lit up like a xmas tree and smakin' her arse in the m's face around that driftwood......can also clearly a fry nest under the driftwood.........god help the rest of those fish when the babies come.

Honestly tho i'm suprised not to see several fry pits and the ones mine make are huge
approx 12" in width and about 4-6'" deep also my dominate female will dig herself an escape pit that's to small for the male to follow her - basically a tunnel from the main pit to another rock close by, a place she can go when the male goes on a rampage.

My male harrasses her quite a bit sometimes when he's in the mood, but they're too close in size for her to go somewhere he can't get to her. Fortunately he's not doing any damage to her. He's such a tough fish he could rip her to shreds any time he wanted to. I have a divider handy but I think they're ugly so I hate using them. I'm really hoping it won't come to that. My last pair, once they paired, always seemed very gentle and affectionate towards one another.

you made the videos out to be way worse than they were. the videos were fine. awesome fish mang and setup.

 

[balton777]

Thanks Trikky I appreciate you making me feel better about the dumb music. I think I just like my vids with no background music...just the sound of the filters flowing.

Aenemax, I'm not so sure if I'll be shipping...but ya never know.

The rest of you guys, thanks again.

This my 3rd attemp at mating Festaes the first 2 ended in the sudden and violent deaths of the females however I was only using one female now I'm using 5.

Very beautiful pair. I am seriously considering keeping a pair, with all these beautiful festaes being shown on MFK! Very nice.
