This is the "boys club" in the 300 gallon tank where I have the F0 Hogaboomorum. The breeding pair are on the far right....these guys hang in the left side. There's the one and only African I kept from the group I photographed a while back. Thought I had them all out of the pond...and found this guy. As it is, I liked this species the best. He just hangs with the hogs. I have three F0 males and one F0 female Hogaboomorum in this tank.

Here's the male Paratheraps breidohri. You can see the various Metynsis and Convicts that I use as dither/targets in the tanks. Another result of taking down the pond its that I have a CRAP load of Convicts. LOL This male is about 12". Some of the Convicts in this tank are less than an inch...bite sized. I also have two small 2" Parachromis managuense (Honduras) in here growing out. This is an awesome fish. There are three females and him in the tank.

The male C. intermedium. It looks like the female is laying out the red carpet for him on her side of the tank. Very aggressive fish toward con specifics. WIthout that divider the female would be scaled, nailed and cornered.

Seriously, make a book called "Today in the fishroom". Have pics dated as you do in your posts. I'll be the first in line to buy it. The wealth of your experience combined with the variety of fish and photography skills can best be captured in a book.

That's a really good idea.
