MORE New fishy pics! :P

Just a quick post to show off my angel and rummies/gold barbs:

They're growing, albeit slowly; I think they're a little scared of the angel. Also, a weird note: they school together!? Silly little fish.

The new clown pleco and a very friendly gold barb.

Nice shot of mr. peppered cory. (I think the facial distortion is due to the angle at which I took the pic)

Thanks!

Mr. Angelfish has moved out, and I haven't had the chance to get a good pic of the young fem gold gourami that's moved in. I do, though, have a couple of good pics of the gold barbs/rummies I'll be sharing today.

Love this headon shot.
(1024x version here - great finnage detail in the bigger version)

I've been waiting for those gold barbs to color up more and their green stripes are finally starting to show! woot!!!

"Ah, youth is so wasted on the young.", said Mr. YoYo as he watched the rummies zipping by him.

That's a very good shot of your yoyo loach. I can't get mine to stay still long enough to get photographed. :?

I was shocked he let me get this pic; he's usually always on the move. It's a little overexposed around his tail, but still a good pic. He was looking into the anacharis while I took this pic. This was the best pic out of the dozen I shot of him.

It looks like you have mostly male gold barbs. Have you tried to breed these guys? I have several myself....very entertaining fish.

Interesting you posted this, Andos; I just looked up sexing gold barbs the other day. I'm about 95% sure I have 2 males and 2 fems, but I don't have the hardware to really attempt to breed them.

ATM, I'm limited to just my 30 long tank (w/out even a 10g quarantine...) and nothing to separate the fry into... so if/when they do breed, I doubt I'll actually even know it happened.

Although, one of the fems is certainly looking 'plump' as of late...

More pics will soon follow, btw; I replaced that angel with a gold gourami (I suspect it's an 'opaline' gold gourami and want confirmation) and as soon as she lets me get a respectable pic of her, I'll post it.
