AKA Bill and Ted.
They are approaching 1 year in age. I have slowed down their feeding to slow down their growth. I feed them frozen beef heart (now) once a day. This is their home:
30 gallon acrylic
Modded light to use spectrum LED lamp
1/5 HP chiller.
Fluval 306 with custom spray bar return, 5" cylindrical sponge filter
Substrate: Carib(TM) black soil with black sand top (has thinned and settled in over time and with the boys digging)
shelter halves of fir bark (soaked for 4 months prior to use), some typical bog wood pieces, lacy java fern, various Anubias, a banana plant, some tiger and red lillies now and then (the boys tear them up), riccia fluitans.
They had a troupe of Harlequin Rasboras as tank mates. Started with 5, had 12, ended up with the same 5. However, recently moved to Texas from Portland Oregon and they did not make the trip. [The boys did owing to the fact that I replenished a container of ice every time I filled up with gas and they kept at a temp of about 54 F for the three day trip]
more officially now...
Please meet Bill & Ted (Bill is the "Blond", of course):
