Please post pictures of any PAIRS of fish you have

[LisaP]

Ozadars/saltlick,

My tank is a 8.5 year old 5ft-er and contains around 190lb of LR. They eat pods, pods and more pods I also supplement their diet with enriched brine (omega-3 or spirulina), bits of mysis, krill etc, soaked in Zoe and Zoecon for good measure. I offer this food to them twice a day via a pipette. Once the pipette is spotted in the tank they home in on it like missiles.

Here's a pic that I just took of them at teatime



The hint of red seen at the top is my Scarlet hawk hoping to catch a stray morsel of food

Regards

Lisa

LOL that's a great picture! Most of the Mandrin's I've seen have been on the thin sickly looking side but yours are gorgeous little chubs.

Great job Lisa.

I've had one for 1 1/2 years and the male for a year. They constantly have a clump of eggs.

Here are my pairs.

Nemateleotris decora, aka purple firefish pair


One more



H.erectus, aka "mustang" seahorse pair



A.chrysopterus, aka blue line/orange fin clown pair

splendid dottybacks

[magicreef]

All these pairs ar great. My husband wants a pair of percula clowns but I would like a nice pair of something else. Not sure what tho.

[Bastianelli]

I was wondering what kind of peacful pair could I add to my 90 in the future? And how easy is it to pair 2 alike fish? (looking for some vibrant color to add)

[PygmyAngel]

They just started spawning a couple weeks ago...and are currently tending their 2nd batch of eggs.

Add a few, 3-5, Royal Gramma, or Orchid Dotty backs. These two species are extreemly colorful and very peaceful. I have them in my tank (90g and now 450g)

[Bastianelli]

So say I got 2 Gold Spangled Pseudochromis- Africa (if i can find them) is it likely they would pair up or more likly they would fight? (or just ignore eachother?)

[OrionN]

I mean one pair Orchid Dottybacks, not 3-5 of them.

What do u think of him tho? Would 2 of them work as a pair?

Here is a pair of tomato in my bubble coral.

My 3 year old pair of Blue Striped Cinnamon clowns.

[Angel*Fish]

Was searching for other info and stumbled onto this thread... it's old, but I thought there might be some folks who had not seen it who would like to - I know I enjoyed it!

Marie, you have quite the foresight!

I'll see about posting my pics of my maroon pair, but I'm more interested in another issue: has anyone paired orchid dottybacks? If you have some (and the time), please either pm or respond here about how you went about getting them to accept one another, and your breeding status. I'm really interested in starting my own little family!

Here's a pair of Bluechins.

[DT's_Reef]

Here is my fridmani pair next to a frag that turned from light tan to pink with blue tips. Everyone matches.

[Sorry for the double-post -- was trying to figure out how to make the picture appear in the post without using a link]

[lexusboy]

Are all of those pairs mated or just a male and a female together?

[oceanarus]

All the pictures of pairs that I previously posted are mated pairs, all of which are showing pre-spawning behavior (if not spawning already). I suppose I should add soon a picture of the cinnamons my wife just paired up from the LFS.

AlgeaMan: Love that pair of triggers!
