Earlier today I was mentioning about this fish and was online and found some. So just purchased 4 of them and small catfish (chaca chaca). Will post here once acclimated and ready to go.

Nandus landed today around 7pm.

Chaca chaca wasn't available as the fish website wasn't accurate on supply. It's available around this time seasonally. There were none and the money was refunded w/o any problems.

Will feed these guys in a couple of days.

Yea....I had one and it was very cool. It was like small version of a paceman catfish. It may pop again and when it does. I'll get one.

But will likely be by itself or larger fish it can't swallow. Hard to break off of live foods.

So far these are guys are doing well as a group of 4. Treated for ick and parasites. No ones picking on each other. Working on breaking off of live foods but hard as expected. They don't eat it unless it moves lol.

Here they are trying real hard to stay still and blend in with the fake plant. image.jpeg image.jpeg
