Excellent work James. Looking great!

Thanks mate.

I love this tank! And what do you feed your congos to get them that bright colour? Mine stay pretty drab...

Thanks. Just the usual stuff really. nothing special. Are yours male? I know female Congo's are drab.

I bought 9 juveniles about 1.5 years ago and only 2 of them were males. One of the would-be males (it only just started to develop its tail) died, so I am left with only 1 male and 7 females! I guess it would be good to have more males to get some competition between them and give the ladies something to choose from . However, these fish are hardly ever imported into Mexico. Since I bought mine I have only seen them upon one other occasion and again, non-sexable juveniles...

That's a shame, is there a reason they're so rare in Mexico? Very common round here to see Congo's of all sizes for sale. I bet that's one happy male you have though

Great look you going on there!

Cheers Ian.
