Snapped a few quick shots (CA/SA cichlids; Dat)

Sorry about the crappy quality and watermarks. Tanks aren't at my new place yet; I just stopped by for dinner.

Start it off with my only non-cichlid (that isn't a dither).

Bad photo of his split bar side.

Then the South Americans...

True GTs and a little umbee action.

GT that I got free from a member.

Male C. myersi (bit scarred from being a pussy).

Male festae

F1 barred midas (from Jed aka THE TRUST)

Terribly out of focus, but shows how built he'll be when bigger.

His sibling that has a little deformity. The body is slightly "twisted" to where the sexy bits are 1/4" to the side. Probably going to Bigspizz

My ugly syn (I have two others that look much better, but no photos).

V. argentea

Not shown are A. robertsoni, smallest of the true GT's, H. carpintis "Escondido" female, and two synspilium.

Thanks Joe. Seeing as you're the one who bought it. I suck at guesstimating size, but it's probably between 4-5" now. The real kicker is all it eats is Hikari pellets. Won't touch anything else (earthworms, krill, fresh shrimp).

Here it is the day I got it which was when? September?

 

[dmopar74]

yeah i think it was september, i want a dat too but they grow to slow and cant justify shelling out big money for a big dat right now(got another kid on the way). anyways enough about me, your fish are lookin great.

I'm about ready to give him away. Can't keep him with even semi aggressive cichlids, and he eats all the smaller peaceful things. I had to move him cause he was getting beat and now half of my 4" giant danios are missing. Not very personable either, but he is rare and looks neat.

Joe, they'll look a lot better in the 210 I have. Just need to finish it up. Going to collect driftwood and rocks from the Green tomorrow I think. Congrats on a second child (was this planned? Heh). Oh, and like I said, if I ever need to get rid of it the dat is yours.

Nothing like walking along the river with a saw hunting wood to make you feel like a man...
