Sold the argentea over the weekend and the JD is living in the sump for the time being. It was a 'lot of fun' trying to catch those two fish out with all of the aquascape I had in there. Said screw it and tore everything out and started a bit over.

Inhabitants-
Orange/white Red Devel/Midas
6 Metynnis sp Araguaia
1 Megalodoras irwini (thought he was dead-hadn't seen him in a month)
2 plecos

Full tank shot after two days of clearing up...

That ought to be the proudest fish on the forum! Imagine - his own 180g!

Your tank looks amazing! You have a good eye!

If anyone has a girl that is white/orange-I'd add her to the mix.

You always have the best looking tanks! That fish really pops with all the dark substrate and plants!

I sold him to a breeder-breeding him to nearly a clone of that fish.
