Since I`m shutting down some tanks (due to my health) I found some fish in some tanks I thought everything was lost :d

The first one was a tank with 6pcs CW009, and sure had nature did it`s thing.
They are now in a bigger tank, and being fed up again for breeding.
Image

The next one was a tank that used to house a breeding group of C140 and C davidsandsi. And there I found, a big fat female and two males C davidsandsi, and three C140, all males it seems like.
They are getting new owners, instead of being neglected by me, due to my health.

Some other cats.

How many tanks and what size are they? Some of them look much bigger than others. I was looking to see if you had "My Aquaria" listed in your profile, but you don't.

Birger, fantastic images. The fish look very healthy. May I ask what is the Loricarid in the, I think, 20th post? Its a series of 3 images, 2 of the same fish and a 3rd duskier animal. They have panaqua like interopercular spines and the color pattern is amazing! Almost rivaling a zebra, all parallel and at an angle. Obviously I am not a pleco nut, but this fish could easily steer me in the wrong direction!

It`s 64 gal. Filtration is about 1055 Gal/hour. This is by now way å tank that i would recommend:)

Being a little tank, I do water change 4 times a week.
I`w had Jools, Ingo, and Norman here, and all of them complimented on my healthy cats, so I must do something right :d
