I used to put mine in a planted tank especially floating plants. They became more stable. Plus darker substrates too.
I bought it frm a LFS in Johore Baru hand carry back all the way across the causeway.hermandrum;3168242; said:
congrats on your pick up ernest.. how much u paid ? looks like a 5 band specimen with nice flowers. i'm sure after it' used to the new environment the color will eventually turn yellowish. few days ago my aunty told me there's a pasar malam (night market) somewhere out of kluang town, there's a stall selling dead snakehead fish for consuming. she told me she saw a few dead 2ft maruloides with full flowers selling at RM18-OO per kg !! I will be going there soon see whether i can order thru the seller for live ones as that guy got all the lucius, straita, maruloides and micro from the asli
