Well since my rays have gone out of my 6x2x2 ive had some fish spending money and i can add some smaller fish without the risk of predatation.

so i picked up a pair of 2.5-3.5" Rotikiel severums, very beautiful fish, a species ive always wanted. Pic of male

I had the chance to pick up a pair of veja argentia in august but i chose my pair of bocourti instead. I was very happy with my desiscion but i did wish that i got some. and on my travels i found this little stunner. Around 4" and getting some extensions already!

The rarest pickup is without a doubt this 3" Parrot pacu, never seen these in the flesh before and theres very little information about them on the internet. so i just had to have this with me being a HUGE fan of disc charcins i have 7 different species of dollars now.

Its like a black redhook with a curved nose. Sorry for the crappy pix its fast! enjoy and comment!

No hes with other mellow fish. They dont like their own company but are fine with other fish.

Whats size will these get to Boggy?

Same or major differences from the reds and blacks?

Got a profile on these guys by chance-
Cant really find any info they arent a true pacu as they arent a colossoma the latin i believe is Ossubtus xinguensis. They only get around 7"
