War-paint colors

Post by Martin Thoene » Sun Jul 01, 2007 10:27 am

One of my Gastromyzon scitulus males thought it was fight night and decided to have a go at anything that moved. He got into really good "War-paint" color and provided me with some good photo ops.

I got this nice G. zebrinus shot, hanging head down off a rock.

And this rather nice one of the male Sewellia.

The male Pseudogastromyzon cheni were flashing fins too.

Stunning Gastromyzon scitulus Martin, I dont see much of my lone G scitulus hopefully that will change when they are in the new tank.

It sounds like you have a lot of activity going on in there :D
