| Wow got some pretty big ones in there. Ever have any trouble with aggression? Also pretty surprised they let those plants be haha. Mine are constantly digging thing up if they could move the rocks they would I swear lol. Great looking tank BTW!

thanks, yeah the acei are about 2 years old now. I have a problem with the auratus since they are 1:1 male to female ratio. you dont even see the female in the video. I also have the pale morph zebra cichlid acting very territorial in the left hand corner of the tank. Otherwise nothing out of the ordinary.
I have had a problem with them digging up my more fragile plants so now the java fern and the amazon swords are the only ones that can withstand them... they also tend to nibble on them more if i don't feed them enough. |
