Nice! I really like the pics and all the fish in particular that male V. melanura.
were you able to get any live fish back with you? and did you had any problems with them at the airport?
By the way I think thats not T. meeky it looks more like T. affinis to me

Had a great time, as far as I know affinis is only found in Guatemala, the meeki ranged from bright red to pink to almost no color, I lost a bag of melanurum which I should split up or individually...
