Vid from tonight.

Fish are coming along. However they may be looking for a new home. The verdict is still out. Wife has the final call. She's not feeling them. We'll see what happens.

True statement. We'll see. she was enjoying watching them last night. Seemingly more active every night.

I feel like she'll grow some kind of affinity towards to them sooner or later. Maybe not though

[barrettsline]

We'll see. Generally if she doesn't like it that doesn't change.

The decision has been made. The trophs get to stay. Turns out it's not the fish, it's the time spent on wild caught maintenance. Now that meds are done and a standard schedule is being set, she's happier.

Now just have to figure out how the next one is being setup. May have bought driftwood for nothing.....
Not happy about that....

Gotta look to the bright side.. All the treatment on the trophs wasn't for nothing. What's your plan for the next one?

Was gymnogeophagus, but due to certain requirements I'm gonna bow out on them for now. Gonna try for another troph group, but we'll have to see.

Love the gymnos, but you can't beat trophs in my opinion

It's a give an take in terms of personality. I will have a group again one day. But I need a perfect 55/75 gallon, for now it's just not in the cards.

very awesome. nice to see you haven't had anymore losses. should make for a sweet breeder colony. any plans to cull males and add fems from different bloodlines? or are you just enjoying these guys

[barrettsline]

No plans at the moment to cull any. Being that these are wild caught, there is no need for other bloodlines.
