I had some Labiatus awhile back, even moved them into the basement for the winter months...

Sigh. Sadly, I decided to go full-on Satanoperca.

They look great Peter! The G. balzanii are also my favorite Gymno. Your G. sp. "Tacuarembo" looks nice too, they look a lot like the population from the Rio Yi.

The balzanis are getting chubby... somebody once said the males looked like the square fish in a commercial (fishermen putting square fish in boxes)

The "Tacuarembo" and "Yi" look almost identical....pretty aggressive too.

Thanks Sue - you too!
