Default Archer Fish - Toxotes Blythii

Finally got my hands on them!
Missed an earlier shipment but thanks to amiidae and NKS... here they are in my little tank

FYI they're not the typical Archer Fish, those are of a different type.

Yah this species have nicer patterns.
Also they are more FW than Brackish so easier to keep them. I think they grow larger too.
