I moved my Sewellia out of their species tank into the main River-Tank. They're going nuts in there and getting into all sorts of scraps with the other residents. It's giving me far better photo opportunities than in the other tank.

The big wuss male keeps running away from the camera, so these are all females.

Shades are needed here!

Wonderful pictures with stunning colour!

D'ya like my red algal growths (or whatever they are)?

Martin.

Great pics!! And the scale detail....
It will be interesting to see if the change of location for the sewellia put them in the mood for love. Lets hope so.
I see you have that red spot algae whatever too. I have that in one of my river tanks along with the purple stuff. It must like high oxygen levels and current.

Such beautiful fish. I want some.

Stunning pictures Martin :-)

Your red algae looks more like a lichen very unusual.

Very beautiful fish.

Very nice Martin. So what are you going to put in the old Sewellia species tank now then?

Now that is a good question.

I bet he has something lined up! Come on Martin, spill the beans!

Come on Mr T, let us in on your secret......we know you're up to something!

I might be moving some fish from a 30" tank into this 36". In all probability I will probably take the smaller tank down then. If I'm doing anything, I'm downsizing tank numbers.

Oh...and I've set up my Algae-farm again on the balcony. So my Hillies can veg-out

Martin.

Awwwww!

With regards to the algae farm.....did you add the, er, 'special' ingredient this time around?

How did I know someone was going to ask that question?

No I didn't actually
