New baby... Short Body RTC

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I thought it was a random fluke or selectively bred.

Necrocanis says that their backbone is the same length as the normal RTC's but folded. How that comes about, IDK. I was under a weak impression that the keeping conditions cause that.
 
Awesome pick up!
I love those sb rtc's!
Hope he eats for ya. Cant wait to see the next update.
 
Jay try to resist feeding this guy to oblivion. I've been on some of the Asian websites and the general consensus with SB is that over feeding=death. Their guts are all smushed together so if one expands, there's no room for the others.
 
^ yeah what she said. Hence why theyre so difficult to find


I think youre fooling yourself if you don't think people would be curious about the price of a fish we don't see often. Its only natural to wonder. However i respect that he doesn't want to share it (yet). Jays a big boy though so I'm not sure why people feel the need to rally to his defense.

This thing eat yet? What are you keeping it with?

Thanks Shook... You know me I like to feed...lol
 
I don't know why people are hassling him over the price of the fish? It's his fish and it's his money... He didn't have to get on here and tell you he even bought the fish, but he chose to. I don't want to tell people what's pay for things, because honestly, it's none of anyones business but mine. Also, down the road, what if he decides to sell it? He may have got a very good deal in it and sees an opportunity to make a few $'s down the road. Why would he tell everyone and their brother on a public forum what he paid? Just my 2 cents. Awesome fish Jay good luck with it!

Can see the problem telling the price

I see loads of threads people asking if this or that fish is a good deal in lfs

It will give people a good idea of what to pay for such a fish

If he just come across this fish in a buch of RTC and paid normal money that's great

I wouldn't think twice about saying what I paid for something
I like it I pay it no problem

Can't wait to see it! Almost picked up a little rtc of my own today, but decided against it. The Goonch cats take priority housing wise! I love the coloration on your cat though! A real stunner.
