from what i have right now, they are in waters of temperature of around 77-78 , they are a lil skittish as all barbs are , tankmates i have right now are as u can see in the picture and it works great, no aggresion , and i have a great run-on sentence here haha
from what i heard , opsariichthys gets to 12" , zacco get to 8" , i'm still not sure which one mine is but now im leaning more to op.
for more info, i would ask Wes ( fugupuff) , he has first hand top quality info on them : D
And yes, the vertical stripe ones with longer fin ARE the males, the one with horizontal stripe is female .... or at least thats what i think they are : ) and hope they r
