Which forum would handle badis badis topics?

Hehe I got three for $1.50 each. Should have gotten 6.

either cyprinids as it is a Perciforme or oddballs.
I'm swinging towards oddballs for this forum.

Where have you made the conection between Cyprinids and Perciforms? Perciforms are related to Cichlids not Cyprinids
The correct forum would be the Oddballs section.

I blame that on only just waking up and not thinking clearly

i've just read that they should be kept in pairs or small groups in large tanks (just found someone who keeps 6 in a 80l tank). says they can be a little aggressive, but are mostly shy.. they like lots of hiding holes.. one for each fish, so caves, bogwood, etc. and would prefer meats (bloodworms etc) rather than flake food!
nott really a whole lot on these guys around, but they are very beautiful
i'd definatly take a look in the oddballs section!
god luck!

Lucky 62 has some and suggested them for my Mini South Sea Tank. Actually a mix of sparklers, honeys pygmy cories, otos. Now preparing is a 40 usg corner tank and whisper filter, the badis badis, and I'm in the process of ordering from apistodave 3 Orange flash cockatoos.

Thanks all. And Kat and James, I am calling in an hour to see if there are a few left to add to their little colony.
