Yeah they're coming along now. Pretty slow growing though. :unsure:

The wood was in the other tank previously, but i have since moved it across to the Rio. Funnily enough it had stopped leeching tannins in there, but since the move the water is now yellow again. :rolleyes:

Too much of a selection really. :/

Thanks very much. Will get some close ups of the Angels when the camera is back up and running. They're a brilliant colour.

Looking good as usual :good:

I know you love your angels, but the other day I had to hold one for a friend and it freaked me out. Those eyes! They were evil 8-) Couldn't wait to see the backside of it. Even my son said it was a 'silly fish'. There you go, listen to the 3 year old :nod:

Once again, the Nannacara have bred. Both females in seperate caves. Not holding out for any survivors though.

Will get one for the last hooray as it will be rescaped at the weeked. Bagged myself a co2 kit for it so new plants etc are on the horizon. :hyper:

The Nannacara spawns were done and dusted in two nights. Lol. I really do need to get them in their own tank to have a go at raising some fry.
