My Fish - Plecs, Angels, Rainbow Cichlids, Etc

[KathyM]

Got some pics of the fish today.

Remember my koi angels that were really poorly months ago?

Beep (cack photo, sorry)

Neo again

And some pics of the others:

Our marble angel baby(as yet un named)

Morpheus our juvi black angel

Our Royal

The male Rainbow Cichlid

Female Bolivian Ram

Lucifer the unidentified type of angel. She's silver, but bronze too, and only has one full stripe.

And last but not least, my favourite ever photo that I've taken. This is one of our two silver angels.

Those are gorgeous angels KathyM

I'm really jealous now. We only have two, need another tank so we can get some more. Are they all in the same tank?? If so, do they all get on??

Great pics, love Neo's turquoise ventrals.



Edit: Spelling, sorry.

 

[KathyM]

Thanks very much all of you

Yep they all live in my 6 x 2 x 2 - Morpheus (even though he's the littlest) can be a git, as can Lucifer (hence the name), but nothing major and they all seem to get on pretty well.

Lucifer also has the turquoise ventrals as does Beep, but sadly they didn't show up in the pics.

I don't breed, no. All of these are juvis, with Beep and Neo being the oldest. Morpheus came from Trimar with another black baby - they were tiny and the other one passed away. Beep and Neo came from our LFS, but I wouldn't recommend the angels there as they had bad fins when they came which we put down to them all being in together at the LFS, but it turned out to be a really bad stress related illness. The marble also came from there, but he was okay - we bought him because he was there at less than an inch and in with fully grown silvers who were bullying him. I know it was a risk, but I couldn't leave him there. The two silvers (bottom pic is one of them) came from Paws for Thought (? one on York Road) in Leeds, and Lucifer came from Pet City in Leeds.

Did you get them all round about the same time? Or did you have some a while, they grew up and you got other babies??
Oh, and your other fish are gorgeous too.

Thanks! Beep and Neo came first, they were 2 of 4, we lost the other two to the stress illness. Then we got the two blacks from Trimar, one died within a couple of days. So we bought the two silvers which were a similar size (tiny) - basically to distribute aggression out, although there wasn't any. Beep and Neo were about 2" in body size then, so not tiny but not big either. Then my sister gave us Lucifer.

Hi KathyM,

I remember well the problems you had with your Angels - they're looking absolutely fantastic (and the other fish too) - great job
