Here's my largest male defending his fry against my female green terror.

They're in a 55g right now (90g on the way). I know, playing it dangerous! The fry and mom have since been moved to a 25g by themselves and peace has been restored.

Nobody bothers the angel whatsoever. She's one of the first tankmates and I think they respect that. But for the most part, they simply don't care about her :) She'll even dive in and take bloodworms from the others and they don't care.

This is the 3rd brood of cons, and only this time have I noticed any real aggression. Usually everyone just respects their (the cons) space, but the GT got antsy (or hungry?) this time around.

If you're referring to the ones those 2 shots, those are of the wallpaper variety .. realistic/3D looking in the pics I know!

The tank actually only has 1 plant in it at the moment.
