A couple of my cats.

This ones in my 29g German Blue Ram tank. They called it a peppermint cory. Not sure of the species name.

This one is my Synodontis. He resides in my Mbuna tank. The only way I can get a picture of him is when I do a massive water change. He spends most of the time hidden comfortably in his cave.

The first Cory is a Corydoras paleatus, or commonly known as the Peppered Cory. Interesting you got it from a place that called it a Peppermint Cory, never heard that common name before. It sounds kind of cute though hehe

Nice looking Synodontis. Mine are almost impossible to get pics of, they are always hiding. The Cichlids in the picture look stunning

Thanks for the I.D. Cory Lover. It always helps to be specific when discussing our fishy captives. I bought him at Petsmart. Their not always the best at giving proper nomenclature to the fish they sell.

My 5 year old picked the Cory out and named him "fishcat swimbutt" and he's been a fine addition to the tank.

The wife is convinced I'm touched whenever my Syno actually swims around the tank. I get pretty excited because I rarely get to see him in all his majesty. He does look very cool when stretched out and fins up.

Hey Iceblue,

I really like your fish, the cichlids look very nice and have great colors on them. Thanks for sharing!
