Hmmm...... haven't seen them around before... but they do resemble brasiliensis... why not try hunting for G. brasiliensis instead... might be easier.

Buy more get more discount!!
oh man, all the short bodied earth eaters all sold out, wanted to get more today but only left the big ones...

ended up buying the new life spectrum pellets as recommended by foreverfrontosa & sheng bro...

now searching high & low for these beautiful fishes, anyone know where still haf stocks?

Got the heckiliis - last 6 pcs at C328, took all. Didn't check but one of them not so well. Died the next morning

Well, at least I have got 5 pcs still. Not the best of shape/colour but will grow them out and watch them develop Got some nanas and DW in the tank but water still not clear yet. Will try to post some picts when they are more settled - already started eating and exploring around on day 2.

Be looking to add some dithers (maybe lemon or black phantom tetras) and some sterbais. Wonder if there's any nice looking small loaches ....clowns are nice but gets big!

Need to really control my bio-load on tis tank as only running a canister on it - its a 4x1.5x1.5. Can foresee may not have too much time for regular weekly WC also.

QH have some EE for sales at $8 , about 3.5"-4" and 3" hickilis

Did saw some nice SA cichlids which i suspect may be Dovii/Wolf Cichlids , some jaguar/managua and "black leopard" ( convert from their chinese name) and a pair of ~7" Uaru ( 50 buck each )
