This is the 1st time i have kept them, i must say they are a facinating little fish. The male is coming into his colours now that they are settling in.

The water in this tank is rainwater but comes from a cement tank to has a higher PH. I'm hoping the CO2 will drop the PH enough that they might breed *fingers crossed*

Did a total overhaul on this tank, had a major algae outbreak, plus everything was overgrown and looking pretty ordinary *L*

Inhabitants:
Amun and Isis - Blue Ram pair
Romeo and Juliet - Gold ram pair
A few juvie peps
Juvie apple snails
Cherry shrimp
