Cichlasoma Ornatum

[england]

Glad to hear it, i just thought id say, all my fish hated being in bare bottom tanks,,hehe

 

[star4]

How are they getting on with the lights now? have they settled?

 

[mattlee]

they are now in a smaller tank but a planted and sand substrate tank. they dont seem to mind the light as nuch until i just moved them i think they will be happier in this tank once they get use to it

[mattlee]

yeah they'll be right

you have really got me thinking about getting 2 more and trying to get a pair Nelly

should i? shouldnt i?

those pics really illustrate just what a transformation some fish go through as they mature . lovely little fish as juvies , serious eye candy as adults , great pickup matt . you just gotta do regular progress updates , like a journal . especially given the rarity of these boys .
