Hey everybody. Just wanted to show off my chocolate Hershey.ive had him/her since it was a little thing. Very laid back fish but seems to have a problem with the female notatus but no real aggression. Gotta love em

Very nice! I'm considering it as my next fish, though I don't currently have room so it may be a while.

Bleekeri is Madagascar actually. I'm of the belief that there are some mixes that work even if from different continent. Just have to keep a close watch.

I had a 8"-9" chocolate and green severum that would get into "screaming" matches on a regular basis. Never saw them attacked each other though....................wussies! lol

Same things these two do. They have these little stand offs flaring there gills at eachother but there just bluffing if one even flinched at the other they would bolt lol

Welp, I'm on my way to the LFS to get one now. Keep having these nightmares about over stocks and poorly matched fish in my wife's tank (she calls it that even though I take care of everything) so I'm cleaning it out at putting new stuff in there.
