Been a month...they are doing well and fattening up :)

Very interesting fish. A bit more active than the other Satanoperca species I kept, and more colorful than I thought. The yellow on the pelvic fins and the purple/pink on the anal/dorsal/caudal fins look somewhat strange :)




Tanks mates in the 90g: Geophagus dicrozoster, Geophagus winemilleri and a few angels.

Wow, they look great. I love the winemilleri and the blue angel. What kind of angel is that (I know nothing about angels).

Thanks:). The blue ones are pinoy blue zebras (D/+ - Z/+ - pb/pb) and the white ones are platinum blues (g/g pb/pb).

i love the little squiggle under the dicrozoster eye :cool: the acuticeps look pretty cool. the shape of their head sets them apart from other Satanoperca. you still have the apistos in there too?

They look amazing Peathenster! Nice!

One question though, don't you think theire colors would "pop" more on a brown/darker substrate? Mine did when i switched from really light sand to brown sand
