I got 250 of these guys awhile back but forgot I had them and never posted them anywhere. They seem to be doing well. I think I only had a few die off. They school and like to hide under stuff from what I have seen of them in my tank.

Mark, how many would it take for you to remember

250, that would be a sight to see when they aren't hiding.

Scipio In end of cycle - Nitrate leveling - Nitrite gone
Oh man! I wish I new you had some Mark. I would have much rather buy from you then to have delt with the owner at PTF. I might be interested in getting more later on, once I see how the 24 I bought interact with my 40 CPDs. I will introduce them into my 125g this Saturday, which will end a 2 week quarantine.

I found out that Zebra Danios (I got the long fins) make awsome dither fish for the CPDs. Those freaking spaz fish are all over the place lol! At least the school nicely

Hey Mark, if you do have them for sale... how much will they be?

I was going to take them out of the tank this weekend to see how many I have an move them to another tank. Once I do that I will know how many I have and if I want to sell any off.

That was how many I purchased. People were asking about CPD's but I was told that some of them might come in funky so I decided to get these instead. I put them into the tank with my cherry shrimp and they just hide under all of the java moss that was in there.

I've had 15 in a 10g here at my shop for almost a year now. They are the shyest fish I've had. Might be because the tanks are in a back room and I'm the only one that ever walks by the tank. To see them I have to sit on an old salt bucket and wait. I will have to say that since adding them that the RCS population is under control in that tank. lol

Plan was to take them home to my 90 but then I'd never see them. Also not sure how they would compete at feeding time.

These little guys are awesome - the one fish that really got me into tropical fish. I have a group of 6 in a 20L with some CPDs, Sparkling Gouramis, Scarlet Badis, Boraras Brigittae, Pygmy Cories, and Blue Pearl Shrimp. They swim around and come out often, but are still more shy than the other fish. I was able to breed them, but 250 of them would a sight to see!
