Brycons And Parrots

CFC · Sep 23, 2008

I recently shunted all the brackish fish out of the front room tank and into fish house so i could have a bit more colour on display and not have the huge algea problems that come with brackish water, you can see the back is still covered in algea which i am slowly removing a bit at each water change.

Anyway this is what it looks like now

as usual my camera skills suck :lol:

This guy didn't mind posing for a picture, colours are coming on nicely now

this could be the same one again, they wouldn't keep still

definately a different one this time

nearly managed to get all 5 in the shot, one swam out on the left and i was too quick for the one on the right :lol:

and a terrible shot of the Brycons, but not half as terrible as the 80 odd i just binned

i just realised that poxy Leporinus managed to get in every shot :lol:

Very nice CFC. I have a soft spot for Brycons.

Also, those parrots have grown a lot since you first got them! The colors are finally starting to show.

It is a freshwater tank, it used to be brackish but i moved all the brackish fish and water out so i could make it freshwater again.

Is it a Brycon hilarii Kewskills? I was down there a couple of weeks ago and they only had that big silver one with the black stripe and the dorado which i think might be a Brycon whitei. If they have more hilarii i'll be down like a shot but i want to try and keep a same species group.

ohhhh, i see, i was confused haha, still a very nice tank.
