welcome look forward to seeing some pics!

Leann any decent LFS would take this fish back as it was misold to you, i know its not ideal as they will just resell with the same info to some other unsuspecting buyer :( Speak to the store, explain you have searched online and this fish grows to a huge size and this is not what you were after ...

hiya i like it with the twigs! But then again i liked it without too

lovely tanks and heres to many spawns from your new CRS

either way it is gonna get too big for the tank its in now sadly.

I hate how these shops sell them as small fish it really iritates me.

Sorry i cant be of more help but either of the ids above will yeild the same results ie fish will get rather large

Violence your pl*cs have been to hell and back quite literally! They will take some time to adjust to anything new you add to the tank be patient with them.

your doing a great job!

cant see pics links have pl*co in them maybe this is the problem?

welcome

you will get an id im sure very helpful people on this site just get as many pics as poss!

fantastic pictures as always i love this thread!

Sat here minding my own business reading forums when i saw all of my zebra danios in one corner, Oohh whats up with them? So i go to the tank and wow! Cory eggs all over the glass!!!! And shes still full of them by the look of her! Quite excited its my first look at eggs :) I know they wont survive ...

If it helps at all i have almost the same fish as you ( certainly looks the same) And it was sold as a King Tiger Pl*co, i was also unsure about it and am still unsure, sadly i cnt get a pic at present, i think we need to wait till these fish grow some more and repost? Id love an id on yours as i ...

Clint read the reply again, he says your fish (originally posted fish) looks like 1066 whereas Larry fish pic looks like L401

Violence my pandas are the same, they never stop moving for food, not like im starving them either! They are very active little things

King Fu!?

not an expert either but they sure look to be pandas

They are all doing really well! they never stop moving, i will surely be adding more of these guys when i can find more (and have the cash!)

Oh dear!!

Ah thank you

typical really my digi cam doesnt have a macro setting

*raises hand to being a pl*c crazy*

Welcome

Mine are always blurred!

So whats your secret to great fish pics?

Water changes wont stress the fish out too much, they may hide away while you are doing it, but thats fine. Like Mats said dont change too much water as it effects the biological stuff (very technical term there! :lol: ) already built up in the tank. grab yourself a filter and youll be fine for now ...

haha well i just whip my credit card out which is not good!

rather have a bit of cash that way i can try and stop myself from buying too many things!!!

Oh i noticed tehy like the albino too :) I have just the one atm hes from an old bacth that i lost a while ago, hardy little sucker he is, he went crazy when i added the pandas in their little baggie!! Nice to see him active again though I wouldnt hold out on the Jullis either id have got them ...

yeah we considered a trip to shirley but id want alot more cash than i currently have for that trip!!!

Thanks for taking the time to reply, i guess i will just be patient and wait till i can go to the Lfs here.

Did a trip earlier cost me £10 in a cab for a round trip so not too bad 7 beautiful panda corys are now scurrying around my tank!!

No pictures sadly (camera is totally rubbish!) Managed to grab 7 of these adorable little fish today, happily racing around the tank cleaning my gravel, id forgotten how good they are at cleaning! :lol: no real point to this message other than im chuffed to bits with these little guys and felt the ...

ah thanks Mats this makes me feel much better, i always like to get them home as fast as possible but knowing its not gonna hurt them to be bagged a little while longer puts my mind at ease greatly

super info as always from you guys thanks!

Guess you have a good point there Mats, the delivery charge is about the same as the taxi, im just impatient :lol: Just called my lfs and they finally have panda corys in stock so my quest is over for the time being at least!! Edit: Racoll i laughed at the pest comment :P They really are just that ...

Just a general wonderment! As far as i know i have one decent Lfs (not counting the evil pets at home) where i live, seeing as we dont drive it a costly excercise for us to buy fish as we have to taxi it home. I know the obvious drawbacks from buying online (not seeing what your buying first) but ...

nice little one they had labelled as a King tiger pl*c that i managed to bag, although i cant id him from the shots in the catelog, and hes a swine and stays hidden so i cant get a piccie :x Would love to know what he is tho hes lovely :) hadnt been over there in quite some time actually planning ...

ugh! so glad we went to rosedale aquatics instead of the thai festival
