My Tinfoil Barb Shack of love.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thanks.

Fishing is my second favorite thing. :) Keeping fish in tanks is my first of course.

Eventually I plan on upgrading this tank to a 75. I just need to re-enforce my workbench to accomodate the extra wieght. I will then add a Cascade 1000. :)
 
As promised here are some pics of my baby Tin foil barbs.

D'awww. Nigel. :) Those do look like the Redtail Tinfoils. They'll be /slightly/ less massive compared to the normal Tinfoil Barbs!


they will be just as big. lots of websites love to claim that the redtails stay smaller, but mine grew to 12", and I have seen true redtails at 14"..

its a myth that the one species doesn't get as big.

its the same old story - someone gets the redtails, doesn't raise them properly, then assumes they stay smaller and either posts it or puts it in a book..next thing you know the misinformation is everywhere..

I can post pics of my old 12"ers if anyone would like:).
