Wow, you got a picture in focus!! At last!!

Bolivians are looking minnnt!

must have been a fluke.......

im really loving the bolivians, the colouration is superb. possibly better than GBR's. if they continue to spawn i may try them in a breeder tank and see what happens

I've just got my first ever bolivians, I hope mine grow up to be as pretty as yours!

be patient with them and im sure they will colour up just nice. mine took a while but are looking stunning now. i think people are put off bolivians as they look so washed out when juvis and when in lfs tanks. get as many as possible to enjoy them more, space permiting

female with eggs

very tempted to put the L309 back in the main tank and stick the eggs into his holding tank.....

do i need the hassle of breeding fish again....?

 

[Alm0stAwesome]

Lol it does seem a shame when they've gone through the effort...

well the eggs have made it through the night thanks to a very loving mother bolivian ram i think im gonna have to leave it to take its cause this time as ive had a call today saying that my new L128 should be in the country tomorrow or thursday

sorry minnnt about posting without doing as i was told but this was a bit of a suprise..... i need the L309 holding tank to use as a quarentine tank now!

all gone now mate, i think they have fallen victim to my hungry plecs i may try and save a few next time though if i have a spare tank. i had another pair spawn last night too, check out my bolivian ram topic for some pretty good pics, especially for me

just thought i would add a new updated pic of this tank as ive not added anything to this journal for a while. ive moved a few plants about and added some new anubias.
