Nice those zebrina look beastly. Do you not have any trouble with them digging up your plants? The discus look great also, especially the one on the top in pic 4.

Thank you. The zebrina dig very little compared to the other pikes I have. They do uproot some plants from time to time but not as bad as one would think.
 
I'm not on that pike game yet but I saw an atabapo 2 at monster pets that just moved things as it saw fit.

The big lugubris pikes dig a lot. My lents, cinctas, and tapajos are all land developers.
 
That is hot.. and I am impressed you took the risk and have been rewarded!

Thank you. I tried angels with my tapajos and it worked. It worked even with the lenticulata for a but until one day the lent it one in ualf. Out they went.

Then I tried discus with the tapajos. I opted to switch out the tapajos with the zebrina for peace of mind since zebrina have smaller mouths and are much more mild mannered. It's been working great.
