Don't have pics yet... but got that mated pair of lyonsi he had been posting the last couple of weeks, a synspillum and a snook! All nice, healthy, and a mere few hours later, colored up!

I'll snap some of my awful pics tomorrow!

Awesome! I'd really like to see the Lyonsi. They are gorgeous fish. Good luck with the Festae hunt too!

Thanks, Gruff!

I think I'm giving up on the festae hunt for now. I know Ira has some he is trying to pair up. I think I'll just wait until he is ready to sell. WAY less aggravating, plus I know his fish are excellent stock! LOL...

I agree. It's definitely worth the wait for good fish from a good source. The pair of Lyonsi and the Synspilum should bring you enough color and activity for a while. You're building a nice collection. I look forward to the pics.

nice, should have done an unboxing vid

 

[cigars]

pictars please!

I know... I should have done the vid! But you would have caught me panicking, when my water level was elavated in the tank, and I was scared to turn valves on my sump! LOL... (I'm new to sumps).

Anyway... the syn is, eh... I'd call him 4.5" inches... maybe 5". The male lyonsi is maybe 5.5" to 6"? The female a tad smaller... I'd say maybe 5"? And the snook is about a good 5.5" to 6" as well.

I'll get pics sometime tomorrow evening, Saturday mid day at the latest!
