Nice to see the colour back, and the vigorous swimming. I was using the same high-carotene diet of Sera flake in the morning and bloodworm/brineshrimp at night. They freak out for sinking food of any kind - Hikari algae or carnivore wafers, shrimp pellets, shrimp meat, and so on.

You figure it's a female? I had them both pegged as males due to the identical size/shape and the troublesome competitiveness.

I also picked up the two S. robusta and one S. pulchra today from BA. After quarrantine, they'll join the river tank and my single robusta will have company again.

Cherry sure is deserving of the name. That's quite a specimen.
He/she has most certainly had a good life at Mark's and will no doubt do well in "retirement" at Erik's.

By the way, Mark, did you get the gastromyzon pdf I sent you?

Does the pink/red color in the pic show up in most established rubidipinnis? Or only on presumed males?
