That's a great looking tank, David

Thank you. Still got some algae issues that I think are light based. Gonna change temperature of the tubes and see where I get.

Nice! How old are they?

[davidtcb1]

I've had them a year and they have grown slowly. Probably two years???

That's a really sweet set-up you have... Hose fish look amazing.

[davidtcb1]

Thanks I'm working on them!

Looks great. Never been able to get over there lack of movement to keep fronts but I have always appreciated the blue highlights.

These guys move around quite a bit. I'm that way with Discus. Beautiful but boring to me.

looking good! love the blue. i've been meaning to take a video or some snaps of my mpimbwe colony but i keep putting it off.

i think mine are a little bigger but pretty sure I started off with larger stock. mine are growing slowly as well, certainly not as fast as i have witnessed with haps or peacocks. i could probably change the water a little more often to help with that but so be it.

that was my one fear moving to fronts but i don't think they are boring at all. they are active, especially towards each other. they don't dart and zip around like haps, but they don't just sit there either. i would call them graceful. in my 20+ years of keeping fish, i've never been more content with a tank.
