I snapped these photos fairly quickly just after I had gotten my Rainbows....I wanted to post some picts of them up.....guess I should have tooken a WEE-BIT more time on focusing )

\/ The other one:

\/ Both of the Rainbows

How do your blood parrot and peral gouramis get along im trying to think of some neat fish to add to my 29 g tank, i think i'll get a blood parrot..there soo cute what else do u have in the tank

 

[Lexxa]

: what else do u have in the tank

never mind..lol..i see now

 

[silver]

Well, I have the 2 Blood Parrots and the Pearl Gourami for the most part......

IME gouramis and the Blood Parrots do NOT get on very well together....

First it was my Blue Gourami and Polly.....

Now it's Baby Polly and my Pearl Gourami.....they just don't see eye-to-eye!!

They don't rip each other to shreds or anything, but they mouth fight a lot! ESPECIALLY after meal time

But honestly....I am moving my Pearl Gourami out and into my 20 gallon and puting my 2 rainbows in with the BPs. For some reason the rainbows get on with the BPs pretty well......probably because they are weenies and stick to themselves a lot more )

HTH!

Hey Parker......thank you.....I think I will choose the last one of Polly

Cute Avatar too!!!! )

Thank you! That's my baby girl Roxy from when we very first got her. My number 1 baby

Oh, and I am turning my 46g into a rainbowfish/cory tank - the rosy barbs are going back to the lfs on Thurs, I just talked to them today

 

[silver]

Cool.....

The Rainbows are such active little guys.....picky eaters though

 

[Fiddlesticks]

How do you get your rainbows to stay still long enough for a pic. Mine always show up as a big blur.

 

[silver]

I don't really know Fiddlesticks.....
I do remember that it was REALLY hard to get the ones that I did get!!

I just kept waiting and waiting and waiting for the right shot.....
I also had to focus on an object and then wait for them to swim by it and then snap it )
