hi folks

These are all wild caught. You'd have to look for an Indian exporter, such as Malabar Tropicals.

hi alvin
i am at present keeping some of these fishes and have had sucess in breeding them
i take it that you are from the states. i am in the uk the going rate here varies from Â£3 to Â£9
depending on type. if you are sucessful in obtaining them they usually prefer cooler temps
the ones i keep all tend to be more healthy at around 21 degrees celcius

hi alvin

sorry i havnt got back to you sooner but it was nice to hear from you in the chat room

sexing mothcats can be tricky and calls for a good eye at the moment the ones i am presently breeding are similar in difference as in the corys with the female being in this case slightly
plumper and a bit rounder in the pectorals
see this link a adult and young
