I went to get the "blue acara", and it turned out a salvini as well... It looked so much like a blue acara and is so so blue with no black marks visible, that it was crazy to see it change color to dead ringer salvini colors when it was chased with the net, in a split second! Still, it was a very beautiful fish and after doing some research on it and finding it ignores fish of different species to is own and that it's well behaved towards catfish and pleco, I still got it as it was the most impressive salvini I had ever seen. I introduced it right away, very late in the day and it was soon too dark to see in the tank. Hope all is good in the morning...At least the catfish have the chance to see the salvini before it does.
What amazed me was how uneasy it was in the shop's tank and stressed in the bag, and how comfortable and sure for itself appeared in my tank, not trying to hide the least bit, just calmly exploring everything.
Tomorrow the A. multispinosus will be coming. Any tips to making things work out nicely for everyone in the tank?
