Hello all though I have done my research there isn't a whole lot on these guys I am taking in three Tuesday and was wondering if any one had any in put, they will be with my BGK that is now best friends with my FFC that was brought back due to unhappiness a couple days ago my hubbys tetras are going to ensure they have their room needed. Here is a pic I found on the odd lil guys.

I have started all my fish eating in the evening due to thats when my ALF likes to eat as well as the BGK, this will be interesting but I'm very excited.

I'm going to be honest, I was just going to follow this thread to see how it goes with you and the fish, because up until yesterday I'd never heard of them. But OMG! Now you have me super excited for you!!!
 
Haha y thank you and did you know they also have a fresh water dolphin, (rare to find) they are supposed to be as close to a dolphin as possible, even play like them.I am getting more excited by the hour can already see I better take some Melatonin of I'm not gonna sleep.
