Here are some pics of my Vieja synspilum. I have a pair left out of 25 1/2 inch long fry I got early last summer. The male is about 6 inches long and the female is about 4 1/2. They just had their first spawn, I lost them to the other fish in the tank. So I moved them into a tank with nothing else but a Syno. eupir and two BNPs.

Now a few of my Hypsophrys nicaraguensis pair. They have had one spawn and I have 16 juvies left.

And a few of my Geophagus Sp. "Tapajos Oragne Head". I have 6 of these, but it looks like I have 5 males and 1 female. Does anyone else have any of these guys that they might like to trade. I need a couple more girls to even things out.

Thank you for sharing!!! They are beautiful fish! How long since you moved them to their own tank?

Thanx ladies. Its been many a year since I kept anything other than Malawans. But I saw these guys and just wanted to see how they would turn out. Brandy, they have only been in their own tank since Sunday evening.
