Satanoperca Acuticeps

[jmotion]

My new pick ups from Rapps. Got them in on Thursday. Will post some vids after they're done uploading. Sorry for the fuzzy night pics. The videos are alot better . Any input welcome. They're currently in an 80gal grow out. Tankmates are 10 x clown loaches, Regani dwarf pike, honduran redpoint, 3 x cory cats, and an upside down cat.

Very nice pickup! One of my fav satanopercas next to 'daemon'.

Just keep up with the water changes and I hope your water isn't too hard! They are very susceptible to skin lessions. Care resembles most tetras, discus, dwarf SA Cichlids.

Thanks. This tank is definitely not lacking any personality. The honduran is such a stocky fella. If I were to use a car as an analogy, he'd be a Cadillac. The regani pike who usually just minds his own business is now flexing the muscles on the new guys. Clown loaches are just...well....clowns. Definitely not shy in my tank. I've been feeding the acuticeps a mix of flake, NLS 1mm, and frozen spirulina brine shrimp.
