Today I made my bi-annual trip to the Tennessee Aquarium and this time I took my camera to take some pics of their Lake Nicaragua tank and other tanks for you guys. They have 2-3 large male dovii's around 15-18" each, some massive 14-15" or so black belts, some 12-15" jaguars, and some nice Midas. The spotlight of the tank was a breeding pair of dovii with free swimming fry. The female was at least 1/2 the size of the mail.
This was the dovii pair. The fry are not very visible in the pic.

The male guarding the fry had some issues with the other large male.

The tank had a few large jaguars that were guarding pits. I could not see any fry and they were guarding the pics solo for some reason.


The tank has some very nice, large midas as well.


Here are some pics of the tank overall.



The blackbelts were also very impressive. I would guess the male of the pair in the pics was 14"-15" or so.


They also had a pair of what I think are freddies. Correct me if I am wrong.

They also had an Amazon tank with some 12-15" peacock bass.
