They seem to want some of what you're having.

Took some pics of the 150g tonight. Moved the swordtail fry to another tank. Aggression stopped once I moved the deppi and astyanax. Really loving the tank right now. Now it only has cribroheros and thorichthys species (aside from the swordtails).

May I please ask what the beautiful guy in the last pic is? I love the shape of him, he looks like he has an attitude and a half.

This guy? That is cribroheros rosratus. A peaceful earth eating type of CA cichlid. This one wasn’t so peaceful w/ the deppi though, one reason I moved him.

Always lol! They are greedy eaters practically jump out of the water when they see me. The food association is strong lol.

Yeah, that guy.
He's beautiful. I've never heard of them. I'm off to google. Thanks!

Nice rostratus. It has a great body shape.
I also like the Astyanax. Unfortunately I can't find them anywhere here...

They are another CA species that does best in groups, which I wish I did originally.

Yeah astyanax tetras are not very popular in the hobby. Very hard to find.
