Herichthys Pantepec/turquoise?

[Jimmy Side eye]

ok so i decided to order 3 of these guys, other person im going in on order with is calling rapps to put it in so i might have these guys saturday morning!!! im really hoping to end up with a pair but i guess only time will tell they will be in their own smaller tank to begin with (since my sens would make quick work of a 1.25-1.5in fish lol) but will hopefully grow fast and be able to go into the big tank soon

Mine seem to be growing fast, but theyre still only 1.5-2". I have mine in a 36x15x12 with some small Istlanum. I was worried at first, but the Turqs are tough as old boots and rule the roost.


Good luck with yours Sarah, fingers crossed that you get a pair.

Here's a photo of an adult breeder I had years ago. They are a fantastic species to keep.
