AWWWWWWWWWWWWW. He looks like a tetra (I don't think he is; it's just what he reminds me of)

Next update, the little guy is doing well, growing quicker now the temp of my tank is higher and I increased his feeding schedule

What kind of fish is it then?? didnt take long to grow did it?

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

I am almost 100% that it is a rainbow

The little dood was starting to out grow his tank, I had not done much with the tank whilst he was growing out. most of the plants died off, and I repalced them with some hardier stuff that can cope with the low tech setup.
Then i got a little tank from ebay for £2.20!!
So, swapped him over today to the new tank, as it was a very slow day in the office.
Will put up a couple of pics tommorrow when I am back by the tank

He looks exactly like a rainbow.

As promised...

His new tank:

The little guy:

He is very hard to get a decent picture of with a camera phone, but you can see some of his colouring starting to come through now

what a cool thread never seen it before.

No idea what it is though but great story all the same

Cute.
At first I thought he was maybe a Giant Danio but now I think he is a Bedotia geayi

how cool bet the lfs is annoyed they dont have him lol

You lucky so and so! Lovely fish but he is going to need some friends!

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

Can't move him yet, he would get eaten in my main tank.

I added some rasbora brigittae today who will become the long term residents

Couple of months, I think I might be able to move him to my main tank, and he can have some proper buddies!
