Hi guys

well about 2 weeks ago i picked up the first 2 cigar sharks i have ever seen for sale (they are pretty rare here), and did one of those impulse buys (please dont flame), they are currently in my 220 gallon tank. I am trying to find info on these guys everywhere but just cant. Can anyone offer some cool links or help out a bit. They are about 10in long.
 
They are also called "Mad Barbs"..leptobarbus hoevenii. I've read they can get up to 25" or so...pretty cool fish. They eat good and are pretty peaceful...very active.
