my tank has now been completed (as far as fish goes) always room for more plants in my opinion!  These are my new additions, sorry for the quality, wouldn't hold still.  I have not picked out names yet, I need to get to know them first. (and hope my rams leave them alone! it's big enough they should be able to find a place.)
 
I've never owned kribs before (nor rams the pair I have are my first)  They are living with loaches, as you can see from photo bomb, and guppies primarily.  5 scissortails as well!   I love my fish babies!

I love kribs! I use to have a pare but it didn't work out. :p
 
I don't trust sucking loach when they get big I found them to be very untrustworthy with other fish even large ones.
 
one is distinctly less colorful, I can try and get a better picture of that one.  What I've noticed though, is my male ram has been hounding the obviously female one, and largely ignoring the presumably male one.  I was told it was a male female pair.  The fish manager (aka dude in charge) is the one who selected them.

Individual pictures, came out slightly better than earlier!

Hmm the first pic is deffo a female. Males usually have a spot on there tail fin, might just not of coloured out properly yet.
They breed like mad aswell lol, I was having 100egg batches every couple of weeks.
 
100% female and male.

Love kribensis, had a pair that bred like crazy! I definitely got the hang of sexing, not all males have tail spots. Some have none, some have 4+!

IMO one of the most beautiful little freshwater fish.
 
I've had my pair awhile and while initially there was a lot of digging and dancing they seem to have gone off each other... :(
 
mostly my female chases my male away, but she looks really really fat.  They both have hidey holes on opposite sides of the tank. I only got them a few days ago though so I'm not expecting anything yet.  But I do have lots and lots of caves.
 
Nice i want a bigger tank than 30. I almost got a 55 but it sold before i could.
