    Here is an updated pic of the P. leopoldi in the 150-gallon planted tank. They now have a lovely little M. festivum who gets along great with them. I would like several more of these, but they are hard to find locally. They used to be common and they have somehow fallen out of popularity, but are a marvelous cichlid, a relative of the angel.

    The Cardinals really set the tank off. The tank is beautiful! I've been wanting to put a school of Cardinals in my tank but the tank my LFS had them in didnt look too good last week. Great looking tank!!!

    These are PetsMart cardinals, believe it or not. I've done very well with them.

    Thats funny... I just went there and looked at the cardinals and they were over priced. I went to Fin and Feather and the water was kind of cloudy so I didnt buy them. When I went back all the Cardinals were gone. I had them order me some more so hopefully they look better this week. If so I will grab three or four of them. They are really pretty fish. I like the plant work in your tank... Great job on the aquascaping!!!
