Hi guys!!!

Thats my first thread here and I already ask sorry for my English (I'm from Brazil), but I wanted to show you some pics of my fishes (just some because I have 8 tanks )...


My male Apistogramma bitaeniata "tefé"


The female taking care of the eggs at night


Female again, but already with the fry


Fry


again...

Now from a planted tank...


Hyphessobrycon megalopterus - Black Phantom Tetra


Female...


Male in fight


Otocinclus affinis

And some of my Kribs


Pelvicachromis pulcher - Kribensis female


Male


Fry


Same fry, but a few months later


Little male


Almost a "school" of them

Well, I'll stop here because I've already posted many pics... Ohh and about the kribs, I wrote a little article about their breeding (with many other pics and info) that you can see here http://sekaiscaping.blogspot.com/200...bensis_21.html - it's in portuguese but we have a translator

Any questions, critics, comments are wellcome!!!
