I moved alot of fish around this weekend. I thinned out the 300 grow out tank. Took ouot some of
the Hogaboomarum and put them in the pond...also some of the Freddies. I moved the Robertsoni (4
of them) into a seperate 75 gallon tank to breed, I moved all of the Parachromis that I had into a
180 gallon tank. One of the fish was a full 6". The rest 3-4". Here's the big
guy.

I moved the big guy on top back into the
300 gallon tank...after he ate two of his siblings...not what I wanted to see. (Bill...your fish
are fine. LOL)
Here are some of the others.

All of the above pictures and the ones
below were shot using a polarizing filter. With the Parachromis the color temperature in the
photos was drastically improved. Previously I was gettiing a lot of digital aberations...and I
could just never hit the colors as they look in the tank. This made a vast difference in the
finished product.
Female Minckleyi with fry (bottom of the outer lip f the pot)
The Breidohri are still in the 300 gallon tank. I moved their breeding site to the front
of the glass so I can document some of the breeding behaviour. Also by thinning the herd in that
tank they should have better success at breeding. Here's the female half of one of the pairs
in the tank.
