My New Boys

[juiced1300]

I just recently got two new boys. One has been around for a week or so and today I got a new delta tail as well.
This is a pic of my new Delta Tail, I still dont have a name for him yet but he's very passive and super curious:

When he realised he's being pictured he turned and gave a little pose and said "hi":

This is Comet, he's been with me for a week now and this is when he just realised theres a new boy next door:

just after that he came up to me and gave me that look that says "You did this didnt you!!!"

Any ideas for a name for my delta?

How about..... Ray... cause he's a little ray of sunshine! awwwww lol

Seriously though, they're both so gorgeous!

Really beautiful fish, love the pictures of him in his plants.

Wow their both such a beautifal strong red colour, i love it Perhaps you sould somehow come up with a name that is something to do with red, not sure what though

Thanks, some of the pics came out a little grainy, I was trying different backgrounds behind the tanks and I thought the blue would look good behind the fish, but now it seems like in the pictures the blue came out quite grainy, maybe the strong blue and reds of the fish gave the camera a hard time producing the colors reliably.
Ray sounds pretty good actually

The funny thing is my original guy, Comet, came from a petshop and he's the veil tail, he barely eats! he's not sick, and he's not looking stressed and all, just not much of an appetite. The other guy that came yesterday will eat ANYTHING in sight! I actually was changing out some water today and syphioning from the bottom of his tank using a length of old airhose and he kept eyeballing my arm and I was pretty sure he was gonna nip me, but instead he played sidewalk supervisor and just kept close the whole time. (In construction we call people who just stand there and watch us bust our butts Sidewalk Supervisor's lol)

I'm gonna try some new pics soon, with more natural lighting.

Heres a few pics show with sunlight instead of lamps =)
Heres my delta tail in his silk plant. Later today they're both getting real Java Moss!

Afterwards he gives me a little show of his tail for the camera

I think Comet is a little jealous of his new mate, so he gave me this look this morning:

followed by this:

then gave a little show of his fins as well:

This last one i thought was just cute, I have a red candle between the two aquariums and heres my delta checking it out:

Just a idea but why not call them Solar & Flare?

 

[juiced1300]

I like solar and flare =) but Comet just sorta fits my veil tail, but flare for my delta sounds cool. it beats my other option of Richard Marcinko lol, he was this fierce warrior guy who trained everyone from the delta detachment here in the US to cross training with British SAS...oh so i heard
