Baby Severum Growing Up!

My guys are getting bigger, and loosing their stripes!

Everybody hangin' out in the trees

Whole tank - no flash

Whole tank - with flash

Neat looking tank! FOTM for the first pic of your Severum...he's a purty fishy!

Thanks Arashi!! I think he may be a she, but it's still too early to tell. S/He's the one growing the fastest since I got them, but still the second biggest in the tank

Is that an ADF in the 3rd picture? Man they are tiny little cichlids.

Love the picture of the tank without the flash, it looks cool.

That pic without the flash is like WHOA what a shot and what a tank! cool looking sevs as well, how long have you had them for??

Thanks for the feedback!

dwarfs - Yep, I've got 3 ADF in there. Everyone seems to get along great. All in all I have 3 ADF, 5 Baby Severum (2 Gold, 3 Green), 2 Apple Snails, 2 Ghost Shrimp (they've been in there for about a month, but I'm guessing that some day they'll become cichlid food), a few guppies (also may become food. they were originally in the tank to cycle it but they looked nice so I kept 'em in there), 1 chocolate plec, and 1 clown plec. They're all in a 30 G and I've got another 30 G right next to it that I'll be expanding them into. I assume that within a year I'm going to need to get a much larger tank to house them all. I'm thinking about connecting the two tanks to create, in effect, one 60 G for them to live in.

Nidge - Thanks a bunch

Vip - Thanks to you too I've had them for about three months now and I think I've worked most of the kinks out. They are my first severum and they eat more than any of the other fish I own. They also seem to prefer the water pretty warm.

Thanks again for the feedback everyone!!
