I always like the metallic sheen on A.tri. Looks like it's a young male and breed-able female.
Looks like a good combination so that the male doesn't get over aggressive towards the female. Thats something i like to have too smaller male but larger female.(Personal preference)
A low pH will cause the male tri's dorsal to extend long and nice!
Thanks for sharing DA!
Cheers!

very nice male you have there doubleace! I like the metallic sheen on the body as well as the bright blue dorsalhave fun keeping this pair!
benetay: Thanks.. hope that its coloration will boom out more and the dorsal fin will extend.
illumnae: Thanks.
Ian: I fed them with live bbs, tetra pro color and frozen bloodworm.![]()

This piece looks really good! Amazing colours and finnage! Still not a full grown so plenty of room for finnage to develop.

Regards
