Are they P.Afer? They ar gunna go nuts with each other if they are.

Yes they are p. afer. Don't worry I know what I'm doing. I'll be getting a 3rd one to prevent them from fighting each other. Plus they will go to my monster comm tank when they grow.

Order them from Toyin or ask you LFS to get them for you.

can i get them in the uk do u no? i no i could look for myself but would m too much like hardwork + how big do they get?
no point in ordering in one when they get 3ft and i cant house it past 18" lol

Just go to your local branch of Maidenhead Aquatics. They can usually get you anything you want, from what I have heard.

lol mine might not for me. but il find another one i can go to. i think they think of me as the crazy fish woman....the way i see it is i buy my food, filtration, sometimes fish from them so i pay their wages and they can put up with me...i also buy them beers on holidays as a thanku for when they actually help me. keep them sweet and all that.


hmm my tank is 2ft tall by 18" depth, so not sure i could squeeze one in, i dont want it stunted...but its a nice thought. maybe when i upgrade il invest in one coz they r truly gorgeous.

Yep always the big tank first before the big fish.
