Adam's Geophagus Tapajos

Hi guys,

I once kept Geophagus Tapajos (not long go actually) and had my geos for a little while (wish I kept them forever), however they outgrew the tank and my orders from my parents (Currently living at home for final year of uni doing thesis) was no bloody way a 6 footer is going in here, so it meant they had to unfortunately go to a better home that was more spacious. I originally bought them to just place in the 3 footer until I could get the 5 or 6 footer going except my situation changed however, and I did not wish to be mean and keep them in an environment they soon outgrew and wanted the best for their health. I hope to still keep in touch with the person who bought them off me and hopefully can get some fry from them as there were a definite dominate breeding pair amongst them. The tank they are in has made way for an apistogramma biotope with a to die for breeding colony of lovely corydoras atropersonatus and melinis.

Here are some of the final goodbye shots I got of my geos before saying bye;

This geo looks sad like they knew what was coming of them leaving me;
