I have not updated in a while and I moved some abalios over from my 500g(8ft x 5ft x 20in) to my 135g (4ft x 3ft x 18in) and I figured id post some pics of old and new additions. Enjoy!!

10" and 9" abalios breeding. They did not carry the eggs but kinda cool to see the big ones breeding!

While moving over some abalios, a female started releasing babies that she was holding. Did not know she had breed but I am trying to take care of the babies in a bucket with an airstone and heater. Im currently doing 50+ % water changes every day. just taking water out and replacing the water with the 500g water. babies look like they are doing well. have only lost 5 since she spit them out. counted around 115 of the little guys. here are some pictures. it's funny, when i put my finger in the water, they are very curious and come right over! they are so cute! actually, this is my first real batch. have had breeding in the past, but they always seem to swallow the eggs. very exciting!
Here is my only altifron "xingu".
Here is a piece of driftwood and some rocks that the fish like to swim around on one side of the 500g
