Nice fish and video. :thumb:

What type of lighting are you using, and what are the rest of the tank mates? Looks like cyprichromis, a brichardi type, and x. papillio?

Wow that's awesome :)

Looks like Cyprichromis, Brichardi and X. spilopterus to me but I only watched the first 10 seconds
Capped internet speeds :(

The leptura have better colour in real life correct? a purple tone?

I saw the Gnathochromis video, you've got some RARE fish man! The Aspros looked great in there... I'm now googling what it would take to move my family to Israel LOL!
