[fishman76092]

I sold my umbee pr to a guy in San Fran and decided to try my hand with breeding Geo. altifrons. Just picked these up from a local guy in Dallas. Wild from Manaus....4M/1F-Im going to get the last pair tomorrow. They range from 7-10" without the trailers.

Very nice tank. Always been a fan of Geos too.

And this is why I like eartheaters.

The flake plants could be replaced with some real ones but the over all set-up is great!

How I wish I could have a bigger tank.

And they will be given that the substrate is Eco Complete. Ill do some Apon ulvaceous and other bulbs that root quickly.

whats the difference between an altifron and a surmensis?

Because everytime I list anything on the local forums I get lowball offers. I get much better money on aquabid- would you have paid $400?

Different species altough the odds of you having the real surinamensis are very slim. Nobody collects in the area where that fish resides in Surinam. Most of the surinamensis-complex Geos are pretty hard to tell apart when small and location of collection is important in figuring out what you have.
