Great vid of them and happy they are doing well. Are the Severum's in charge ?
They squabble back and forth. I've seen the larger Uaru nip and chase off the severums. One thing I've found is that the Inirida sevs are a lot more aggressive, just like the H. severus I had. They are very rough on each other (the male and female in this tank fight constantly and tear fins) and they've also eaten about 6 cories and half my tetras.

Nice!! Are the Uaru wild or captive bred? They look like they're doing really well, any signs of pairing off?

They are wild. Tank-bred pandas are extremely uncommon. I got one batch of Belgium-imported F1 about ten years ago and haven't seen them available here since.

No spawning yet but the water isn't right for that yet. Plus they may be seasonal spawners like a lot of wild fish. For instance, my Heros severus only breed from April - July or so.
