Hi,

I was just at a fish place and they had a poly labeled as Polu Palmas. It looked different than the senegals I've seen (those are the only poly's I've seen). Which Palmas is it probably going to be, and how can I tell?

There was also a poly in the next tank with a label on it as Brachardi. I think the label was wrong, but could anyone give me a site that helps me identify these?

Last, I've got a 29 gallons just about cycled. Would this be fine for a few poly's as a grow out tank?

Thanks
 
There are a few stickied threads that should be helpful:

and will aid in identification. There are several websites out there, some dedicated to poly's, but IME the poly experts here on MFK are helpful and extremely knowledge able.

A 29 could certainly be used as a grow out. I just moved a delhezi out from my 29 after a few months of fattening. My ornate stayed in there until it was 6" or so as well.
