Post by Pitchiri »

I am totally baffled now as to what I have and how to find them some nee friends. So I ask you all for help. Had them a year love wood, hardly see them until I had to house my zebras with them in an emergency. Then they became so social with lights on. But looked weird so had to catch them. Then said these don’t look right for what they were sold as.

Hi all,

Nice fish, they look in tip-top condition.

They look more like or ?

If they were they would be more orange coloured as juveniles, which might explain the confusion (or allow the vendor to duplicitously sell them as the more expensive )?

cheers Darrel
