Dont know, I actually think the quality of my pics arent that good. I basically just press the button down and take the picture, dont mess with any settings etc. Also getting some decent shots of the fish, I just wait until they are in a good position and snap the pic ASAP before they move. Still, I think the pics I take arent really good.

Love these guys. Here's a pic of mine, it's about 5 years old now. This pic is about a year old. I've really got to take some updated pic's of it.

Rainbow cichlid's are very romantic fish,it's a must to have a female not joking. i know have about 40 of these guys once they pair off that is it,they are always together.
 
I had a trio, the Pair would only breed when they had their "whipping boy" to beat up.

That being said, I think these CA cichlids can be put in any setup where peaceful SA cichlids would work. I've never even seen them nip a cory cat.
