Title: Can anyone tell me what this fish is?
Post by: feathered feet on March 23, 2007, 07:53:28 PM
Hi all
I use to have three of these in with Zebras they got really picked on so I moved them in with a pair of Bristlenose.  Well two unfortunatly didn't make it.  I really like the fish and would like to get it a partner or colony if that is how they like to live.
Thanks
Nat
Sorry the pic is really bad but someone may still know I'll try to get another one they are quite shy.
