my new dorados!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I got mine from Wildwoods, they did have a large group which disapeared quickly. I wish i'd bought a third or fourth.

Nine would be an impresive site. How big is his larger one?

What area was your friend shopping?

Thanks
 
I recon they most probably came from Amwell aquatics it not to far from wildwoods and they had loads in the other day around the 4" mark.
 
think that was the place.. he actually found a couple more elsewhere the other day... he has 11 now!!! mine seem to getting along fine no real aggression .. yet!! they seem to have a chase and get excited and kind of snap at each other but no damage or singling out just shoal around together.

think they have grown already!!
 
I am going have there today. I need another two to reduce the focus of any aggression. They say they have a couple coming upto the 5" mark so I will try and grab them.

Cichla666. Do you see scales flying everywhere when they do fight?

11, thats going to be one hell of a tank when they get large.
 
i've seen a couple of scales but nothing serious.. as i say i haven't seen too much in the way of aggression yet... i've got some small datnoides and some small hoplarchus in with them and they all get along... probably helps that there's other fish in with them...

my mate is planning a large tropical pond... he has 10 temensis as well so it'll be an impressive site!!
 
here's a couple of updates.. they are nearly 6" long already and still seem to be getting along!!
