Just a couple pictures.  Took 20+ pictures and these are the only ones worth posting.   >:(

A video will come in a second.  Shows the fish much better.

Very nice looking fish !   I love how you set up this tank, lots of hiding places..

wow. Beautiful tank ken. Some of those males are super colorful. Are those real plants? If so what kind?

Looks nice.  Red tail shark gives a little body shape interest /difference.

The plants are all fake, I just never clean them .  They look a little more realistic once  algae grows on them.

I always like red tail sharks for some reason almost.

Nice.  It just struck me how big a piece of driftwood that is you have in there.  Seems to make a nice centerpiece.

That's a great looking Sunshine Ken. Mine is getting there but still not as vibrant a yellow as yours is.

your colors are awesome. Some of mine are just starting to color. Can't wait till I have a tank full like that of mature males. A+++ thanks for sharing.
