Albino Socolofi's are beautiful fish. They are one of my favs. The flavus is nice looking too, anxious to see the un-stressed coloration. :)
 
Really nice tank WP.

The only thing missing is plants! We all know that it is not really a fish tank if you don't have plants in it!
 
RESCAPE!

i was having some problems with agression. The zebras were really bothering the flavus, so i changes the decor around a bit, and made some smaller hidinh spots where the flavus could enter but the zebras could not. Seems to have worked well.

I took a video, instead of a picture, just because videos are better :)
I also added a few plants, anubias and hava fern.


UPDATE:

I added a few more plants... here are the pics:

and a video
 
UPDATE:

I'm sure you were all waiting anxiously (LOL) to see if my male Flavus coloured up. Well, he did, a little bit. I think more colour will come with age. More yellow on the fins, and in between the striped is becoming lighter beige, soon it will be bright yellow, i hope.

And my stupid socolofi keeps jamming himself under a rock, this one is hilarious. He will go undr there, peek out, then swim back, in, then peek out again... lol. I thought these pics were funny
