    Here is a video of my south american tank. I have blue platnum pearlscale angels, rainbow cichlids, double red apistos and a pair of farlowella cats in there. It is a 50 Tall and as soon as the angels get old enough to pair up and the rainbows do the same I will find homes for the others. It is a nice peaceful tank.

    Very cool looking fish. I don't think I've ever seen Angels exactly like them before.

    then they cant be albino's now can they?(hers not yours)


    very nice tank, what are those larger cichlids in there? I have a 52g amazon tank with a dozen angels(trio of male blue marble veils), two rams one german blue and one electric blue, 18 or so corydoras, 25+ pangio oblongas, and 30 or so neons and cardinals, 5 assassin snails, 1 RNP, 2000+ malaysian trumpet snails.

    I will get a video of mine, be forewarned you wont see much in the tank but the brighter and larger fish that are close to the glass. the water is very tannin rich.

    I am doing a 210 build starting in the morning for discus, it will be very close to amazonian waters but clear and with some changes to appease the public who views it.

    Mine are not albino angels. They are blue platinum, two are pearlscale. I hope they are male and female. The larger cichlids are rainbow cichlids. I am very bummed as they have all turned out to be males. But I talked to the breeder and he will trade me a female for a male so then I will be able to breed them. Thank you all for commenting on the video. I love to show off my fish and tanks. :)

    easiest way to tell male from female with angels is their face or head slope, if its got a ridge its a male, if its got a miniscule ridge to a flat slope to the mouth its a female. I can see it as young as quarter to half dollar size in the body. My blue marble veils are all boys, huge ridges on their heads then my blushing and blue kois are one male with a high ridge and the females with slopes, also my breeding pair are like this, male has a big nasty ridge almost alien in appearance while the female has none. just food for thought.
