Introducing my F1 'Laguna La Perdida' FIREMOUTHS Thorichthys meeki...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Oh they can get big… this guy came from a 150gallon tank. They are a very charismatic species. ;)
 
No Idea... they originate from Rusty Wessels collection

I believe you are correct.

I just picked up a group of six of these from a guy that got them from Rusty Wessel last year. Mine are still relatively small at around ~3" but they have settled in nicely and are already starting to show some great colors. Looking forward to seeing them at this size.
 
You tend to notice a lot more red in the fins on these guys.

Thanks for your help, how many years they took for 3"?
 
The big male has a problem at the moment... he's lost his swim bladder and just bounces off the sandy substraight...h'es still eatting ok though and still dominant. I'm considering putting him into a hospital tank and dropping the water level so he can maybes re-inflate his swim bladder. Only worry there is I don't want to stress him, to much as that can cause problems in itself. :confused:

I just got these a few weeks ago and the guy I got them off of said he got them from Rusty about a year ago.. so roughly a year?

Sorry to hear about your male cyberman. Best of luck with him. Any idea how old he is?
