My Tinker's Butterfly has arrived - Aquarium Advice

myerst22 · 05-10-2008, 04:14 PM

Hello everyone. I finally got my Tinker's. After waiting for the right one, she is finally here. After waking up this morning and finding my Rhomboid swimming around the tank that was missing for 3 weeks, my Tinker's has arrived. What a great fish day!! It's like Christmas in spring. The fish is acclimating and I will post pics of her later. I have researched the Tinker's throughly, but I want to know people's personal experience with them. I was looking to get a wrought iron but after reading and asking you guys about them, I decided against the wrought because of the need for cooler water temp. So please share your pics of your Tinker's and experiences with this cool fish. Thanks Tim

Here's my Rhomboid that went MIA for the last three weeks. It grew about an inch and looks really healthy. She's swimming around and not hiding at all. I'll post pics of the Tinker's soon. Regards, Tim
