Great day at the LFS yesterday!

[steve1088]

I greatly expanded my collection yesterday. Just look at the prices!
L155 Hystrix 6" $25
L201 Flash 5" $18
L273 Titanic 3" $25
L264 Sultan 4" $18 (I bought two)
L177 Queen Nugget 3" $7.50

I am friends with the LFS owner,so I expected a good deal when he put in his order. But I was blown away by the shipment, especially the 7 dollar L177. On a side note, now I know why Acanthicus Hystrix's common name used to be "Satan Pl*co" He took over the tank in the first 30 seconds he was in there, overthrowing the previously dominant L25. This thing is just plain mean.

Cool selection of new fish you have there.
Have fun with them.

Those are indeed very good prices - can I have some at that price too?

I take it you're aware of the ultimate size of A. hystrix, around 2-3 foot!

You mean like this?

He's in a 125 gallon, so he should be fine in that for quite a while. I hope.

A 125g tank is good for a fish up to about a foot long - these grow to well beyond that, but of course, you probably have planned for the extension to a 500g tank by that time, right?
