These are the angels in our main fishtank in the Living room. I am not sure who came up with the name Angels but they obviously didn't name them for their behavior! There is a clear pecking order with these guys and it is constantly enforced. |

Here is a picture of my Convict Cichlid (Cichlasoma nigrofasciatum) just a few days after I got him. |
Here is a picture a couple of months later! The plan was to mate the two I bought, but I ended up with two females and they tried to kill each other and had to be separated! |

With the Angels & Gourami are three Corydoras aeneus. They are very small short-sighted catfish that are extremely active and very entertaining. |

Here are three of our angels with the blue threespotted gourami (trichogaster trichopterus). You count the eye as the third spot! |

We currently have four tanks. Two 10 gallon tanks, each containing one Convict, one 5.5 gallon tank with three zebra danios ,one albino zebra danio and a snail. The Main tank is a 27 gallon tank with a homemade light box and houses the four angels, the gourami and the three corys. The above pictures were taken with one of the first generation low-res digital cameras (a Kodak DC25) and it does not have macro capabilities. |
Some of the best aquariums that I have seen have been designed by Takashi Amano. He creates what he calls Nature aquariums. Take a look at the picture below and click to go to his ADA website.
