Muchas gracias por sus amables comentarios. Me gusta compartir mis fotos con mis amigos en España.

Francistrus...yes, this is the first time they have bred.

The pair successfully bred two weeks ago. I generally leave the fry with the new parents. Most often the first batch of fry don't last past a day or so...new parents. These two did surprisingly well for the first round. Here's the female; http://www.aquamojo.com/coat/Coat-726.jpg The male never real...

Buena suerte. Usted no será decepcionado.

Gracias. Es mi placer.

I cleared the front two thirds of the gravel...pushing it to the back. I got a few really nice shots. Luminated top and bottom. This one shot from below. http://www.aquamojo.com/Gutty/zonatum-1021.jpg This one an interesting angle....and the depth of field help up for detail front and back. I like t...

Free swimming fry with the parents. I took a bunch more photos of the fry that I will pot later in this thread.

Son muy entretenida e interactiva.

These were actually taken last week. As I was filing my RAW images I saw that I forgot to process these. I think they are probably three of the best that I've taken of this fish. For this I used only one key light offset to the right of the fish. I used a reflector on the bottom of the tank and boun...

Like clockwork after a 75% water change the pair is back to business. Their behavior is almost predictable at this point. I like getting shots like this one... http://www.aquamojo.com/managuense/Hondo-Manaquense-2121.jpg ...but like anything else, being in the right place at the right time is key. T...

Gracias a mi amigo.
