ordered 5 baby indos for $100 the other day and they got here today and when i oped the box there were 6 and they were smaller than i expected..i fed them some brine shrimp and they all ate and ate a lot...pic will be up as soon as i download them...

when i first looked at them in the bag they all had nice strips during accumilation they went away and now theres a few that look awsome(nice gold color and dark black strips) and the rest are coming around...i already want more tho...im in trouble:nilly:

pics up soon

right now there in a little plastic tank in my 235gallon since i thought they were gonna be close to 2" and they're 1" and under but they all great and i got an extra i want to get atleast 6 more but i gotta put some money towards my tig and rays first

if i put them in my tank now my arowana would chomp them up like they were pellets haha hes gettin big now around 16" id say
 
Wow! I'm not even sure I would trust a 16" aro with 2" dats. But congrats on the pick up and get them guys growing. Dat fever is a tough one to get over. I have 4 widebars right now and every time I see them for sale I want to buy more...if it weren't for my wife, I'd have at least a dozen of them...:naughty: :naughty: :naughty:
 
I picked some up too- 1 inchers for 15 bucks, did the importers raid the nursary? all the stores around me have a bunch

Man youre going to be waiting at least 3 months before they are even close to 3"!

yea im sure it will be atleast a month or 2 before i'll let them out they just need to be big enough not to eat and becuz of the shape of there body they shouldnt need to be huge
 
some of these are from yesterday and a few are from today...they are eating great attacking the brine shrimp as soon as i drop them in
(also threw in a pic of my CL's and black arow tho both pics suck)
