Wow - finally have fish !!

[Metermaid]

Went to Oasis Aquarium in Manchester (thanks for the recommendation folks !)...they were very helpful and lots of great fish to choose from - I mixed buying what I went for with getting my head turned by a pretty fish I know nothing about..... hangs head in shame.

So now I have (all juvies), 4 Lab caer, 4 Pseu Acei and 6 (these are my wild card), Ice Blue Zebra - please could someone tell me exactly which fish these are likely to be - so I can see what I have let myself in for. Lfs said chap who bred and brought them in said they were peaceful - they are very strikingly coloured.

I am amazed at the activity which is going on in the tank - it certainly isn't a relaxing watch - do they ever stop swimming ?! - I am also taken with how the colours change - I have a blue marine light and the blue fishes colours drain to pale yellow as they swim to the top of the tank - very fetching.

Would like to thank everyone here who has been so helpful and continually replied to my endless questions - I fear there will be more

Thanks

Rita

congrates on getting your fish!

The zebras, are probebly blue or coblat zebras. Id bet cobalt though, as they haev more of an ice color.
