130 X 36 x 36 inbound...any suggestions?

I can't get a decent pic with this lens if I took a million pics...
love the bandit/clarion circle pic but salt creep photobomded it, lol, ugh....









 
You're aware that this is aggression as much as it is "love" right? :) Just sayin', be prepared, even though your tank is huge. When fish ignore each other I am so happy, when they actually notice each other, or even interact, I get scared...

lol, yes, but way to ruin the moment...:p
 
Great pics! I see the black is starting to develop on the back of the dorsal fin of the Goldflake, very nice. Any ideas about your two CH triggers? I can't say I've handled them before, but have had a few pairs of blue throats and the pairs stayed m/f when a dominate male was present.

Love the pics! How big are the two love birds (they look about the same size)?
Any closeup full body shots of the cortez? I've always liked the way they look like their body was painted by an artist (at least to me lol).

Hey huma, by any chance do you have a navarchus/blue girdled/majestic angel? These are by far my favorite.

Yes I do, as babies they are by far my most favorite of the large angels and are just beautiful looking...she came in about a month ago, around 1.5 inches and with 3 sites of lymph...still treating her and hope she can shake it...

Hey Jake,

Thanks!
Yes, her black is coming in nicely and she continues to be a very bold lil fish...
As far as the ch go, from what I hear it rarely happens in captivity...I think once placed in the big tank the female just went for it, they were both pretty small, right around 4 inches..the rapidity that the change occurred was just incredible and I wish I had more pics before and during...
Both fish were collected by Rufus and he sent the female ch as a surprise when he sent the larger bandit...he was also very surprised when I discussed the change with him and said he had never seen it occur..
I am curious to see how this plays out...overall, they treat each other pretty well...

Thank you...
They are both just under 4 inches...
There are a couple recent body shots of the cortez in here but I will try and get some tonight...
