Some good new pics of my boys!

Orion is MISTER busybody and camera ham LOL. He suddenly charged me flaring earlier and I thought I just have to try to get some more pics of him. His personality reminds me some of BettaMomma's description of Amos. He flares anything that moves or is shiny.

Draco is the exact opposite. I can't get him to flare at all. He runs over curiously to look at the mirror, but it seems to remain congenial curiosity, he doesn't flare. He does attack his Bio-Gold pellets ferociously though, he almost jumps for them LOL. He really likes to swim into his little cave and through his plants a lot.

Anyway, enough jabbering. I got a few pics of them, especially Orion, that I really like! Here they are.

Pretty boys. Too bad you can't get Draco to flare. I'd love to see him spread out.

Orion reminds me of a unicorn, for some reason.
Very majestic and beautiful.

And Draco reminds me of a teddy bear I had when I was a kid. His name was patches - he was a rag teddy, and his body was made up of little different colored squares - red, blue, white, etc. sewn together.

LOVE them. They're beautiful.

Does anyone else see that gorgeous blue in Orion's eyes?

Thanks guys! I LOVE the blue in Orion's eyes. He is a very beautiful fish and the camera just loves him . He and Draco are just night and day in personalities and looks. I decided to turn off the filter altogether for Draco, he just wasn't liking it. It was on the lowest setting and very gentle, but he still would hide out behind his plant constantly. When I turned it off, he came out and was MUCH more active and happy. So we'll just go with more frequent water changes for him. Orion, my extremely feisty guy, seems pretty unphased by his current now that I've used the filter foam to make it more gentle. I just love them, never would have guessed I'd get so quickly attached to the little guys. If I didn't have the yard, house, two dogs, bird, plants, and two tanks to take care of on top of work, I'm sure I'd be filling the house up with more of them !
