Hey everyone,
I just brought home my last fish for my 80gal and I love him! He's a Geophagus steindachneri and I got him as I was thinking of a compatible single fish to finish off the tank and after researching its interesting personality I decided to go and get a male as they seem to be better off alone than in a group which is odd for a geophagus species, anyways he was in a tank with a few gold severums as he was beat up by his own kind and even so he still looked beautiful and got on well with the severums so I decided he was the best option out of all the others! I'll get some pictures when he decides not to hide under driftwood :)

 
This is him! :)

He's LOVELY! And he must be relieved to be shot of the bullies. He has a very noble looking face, like a French aristocrat.
Thank you! He's a charmer haha very active fish aswell just a shame they don't do well in unestablished groups like other geophagus :)
