I don't know why but this fish has been so hard for me to get for whatever reason. Usually money but this afternoon, I got 2. Should be able to get the other 4 by Friday. (waiting for a tank to sell for cash) I gave up and bought juvies. These pics are from "the moment" they went in the tank. Now they are hiding behind some wood until they settle in. The stock list for the 135g begins!!!!

Not monster but what do you guys think? The 135g is going to be soooo funny looking for a while. 6 tiny read head, 1 big Satanoperca, 1 small swordtail...

These guys are TINY!

My kids swordtail think they are pretty cool because before them he was the smallest in the tank.

give them another year to grow, you won't be disappointed. ;)

Yeah I can't wait. This was the first geo I wanted to get and ironically the last I have been able to get my hands on for various reasons...

Anyone with pics of thiers is welcome to post them up in here, juvie, adult I don't care. I feel like rocky today! Gunna start singing "eye of the tiger" pretty soon!

Mine are hiding because they are a 1" fish in a big tank with big fish and have been in there less than 48 hours. Kind of like how I would feel in a UFC fight... ;) I have seen these guys as adults and they do not seem skitish at all. If you have fish that would tower over them in size you may run into that though.

Listen to me giving advice as if I've had these guys for a whole three days or something! I'm sure a couple of seasoned people can chime in.
