Cheers. There look like there going to be one of the plainer types but i think i prefer them they look more natural and fit in well with the Akysis.

The Badis are around the " mark so small. They could even be a type that hasnt been described yet because from what ive read not many badis have been described. No matter what they are they should fit in ok because most like temps around 22c and a fairly good flow. The Garra is about 2" not including tail.

Cheers. They are really colouring up. The one in pic 4 is now a dark gray colour with jet black stripes and fins and theres another one the same as him which i think are both males. Then theres 4 this are a lighter grey with broken black stripes down them which a think are females. I can find any fish like them though so really dont have a clue what they are.

The badis are Badis badis.
A mature male should look like this

Mine are only young but i can already see a little of the red on the dominant males body.

I'm curious as how they'll colour up for you. At least you know what you bought now!

Hopefully they will colour up like that with age but im not to bothered even if they stay how they are not there still stunning fish. Im really happy with them considering they where only £1.75 each.

Haha. Hopefully but either way im happy. They still have a fair amount of growing to do yet. There about 1" now so still have another 1" and a bit to grow yet. Once they start to mature im going to narrow them down to the dominant male and a few females.

Well i added 3 Synodontis nigriventris to the tank. There from africa not asia but since im getting rid of my 30G and they dont fit into the 150G stocking i decided to give them a go in the tank and guess what after under 24 hours in the tank they have spawned. I only managed to save 2 eggs but hopefully they will hatch. As far as i know they have only been spawned in an aquarium once before so im really looking forward to see if they hatch.

Well unfortunately the eggs have gone white so they must have been infertile. Hopefully they will spawn again soon.

Haha. I was just talking about them with him and he said i could have a group for free so i took them in a shot. There quite dull now but hopefully once they have settled i they should look better and once i get a bigger group.

Smart business man. Spend a little to get a lot. Those things happen when
you deal primarily with one or two shops. I need to get there!
