Burmese Clouded Archer Fish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nice archers! Here's my guy I just picked up yesterday. He's about 4.5 inches long and a little skinny but I'll fatten him up. It seems like the patterns on toxotes blythii are like fingerprints.....no two are the same. Curious to know if the patterns on yours morphed into more horizontal lines like a zebra as the fish grew bigger?

awesome toxotes blythii! i love these guys as you could probably tell from my name <---- archers only need like an inch to spit if you have a loose fitting top you could hear them spit at night. mine all night when i had em in my room they would wake me up it was loud lol

I have 4 clouded , I keep my water level high. But when I am doing a water change I usually pick up a dozen crickets and drop them on the exposed driftwood while filling the tank. The archere go crazy...Its very cool to see them in action.

Herr is a shot of 2 of mine.
