they are a different species of arches that are freshwater. really rare too if I am not mistaken.
Yeah, these guys are surprisingly accurate, especially when things are in motion. When the pellets are sliding down the glass it really catches their attention and then they almost always hit them dead on.
MHcblues119 - I haven't had these guys too long but so far they seem to be doing fine. The key is finding the right species. T. jaculatrix and T. chatareus are two commonly traded species that require brackish conditions. These are T. microlepis, which supposedly do fine in fresh. They're not really that rare (Kevin - you may be thinking of the T. blythii that Wes recently brought in. Unfortunately, those were beyond my budget), their just often misidentified. The trick is to identify them correctly.
