They're gorgeous!

remember me when you have little ones... My tank would very much appreciate one of those beautiful creatures... biggrin.gif

Just remember that these guys like to be in groups, so you should have 2-3 of them.

Cheers guy for all the comments.
I decided that I'm probably never going to find them at that price again and just rang the shop and told them to hold the last 3 for me for next week.
Dunno if I'll be able to afford them, I'll have to find some stuff to flog on eBay, but at that price, I'm gonna do my damndest!!!!

They are gorgeous, almost unnatural color on them, just amazing. Congrats.

Are they going in your 140 Gallon tank, with the oscar and shovelnose etc will they be ok in there?

Wonder if rvm goes to the same place I do... I could have got some for about that today, but didn't in the end. Damn.

Great Deal...never have seen them around here...glad that you plan on breeding them...maybe you can help their delclining numbers(and the price as well )

 

[smithrc]

beg, steal and borrow to get the money for them at that price!
(well beg and borrow anyway!)

and on a serious note.... dont get greedy if you do end up selling fry

dont get greedy if you do end up selling fry

lol, it would be good if you sold fry to someone to make a breeding group as these beautiful creatures are becoming rare in the wild and I think it's our duty to stop more wild ones being caught than necessary.

Lovely fish, as well you know!

Cheers again guys. Like I said. I'm not sure they will breed, but I'm going to set the tank up as best I can to replicate thier habitat. Fast flowing water, caves etc. etc. and keep my fingers crossed!! If they do, I'll be chuffed to bits and I'll have done my small part!!
I'm just glad to be able to own some of these beauties!!!
