1 year update. (Pics intensive!)

[Jon-san]

After awhile of being absent, finally decided to grab some shots of my mini monster comm. Most of them have grown, significantly, in some cases. Hope you guys like the update. Please pardon the yellowish tone, as I just added some blackwater in.

The pictures of the comm then, when it was first started.


My male PDRxLeoPearl


The female


My GML XB then... small small 5"-er fellow...


My wife's favourite, the kisser, my red-finned FF


The %-bar IT then, approx 5" or so...


And the other X-bar... then approx 4"

Coming up, the updated pics!

They have grown!


The XB now.... What a stare!!... 14-15"-er


The male PDRxLeoPearl. Now 13-14" fellow


The female, also grown-up already...


The %-bar IT. now a thick-bodied 10"-er


The X-bar. not growing much... now about 6" or so... fellow eats everyday, but small quantities only.

And some new members have joined up...


A pair of Caquetaia Spectabili.... 2 oddballs who really look out of place in this tank...


My sulky L14 Sunshine, who hasn't eaten since I've gotten him. Not that I've noticed anyways...



The Crown Jewel...


My returned-from-exile Brokopondo... then ID-ed as stunted at 5.5", now after 3 months in exile... has returned at a good 9+"

Thanks, bro. My water change regime is 35-50% each time, twice a week. Every week, will remove my prefilter for washing, change magiclean every 2-3days. Diet is MP in general, with algae wafers for the rays and FF, and BFs for the aros and tigers, and sometimes the broko as well. Occasional snacks on live ghost shrimp. Average is around 7-8pcs of midsized MP and 8-10 pcs of BFs per feeding. Only feed 5 times per week though. No feedings on my WC days.
