Thank u sir, the raphaels are like bulldogs, they are active when young and just sit inside decorations till food hits the water

I'm definitely looking into getting a pair.
One of my fave fish besides the upside down catfish.

Its hard to sex those guys when they are small, but I know I have 2 pairs for sure. Three females get full of eggs every once in a while. Not to be confused with them over eating lol

Wow! I read that it is incredibly hard to breed them. Or get them to breed anyway.
Impressive

Yah, I wish they would breed for me, I would be happy with just finding fry in the tank one day. Not only do they look pretty but they are also VERY hardy in my experience with them.

I plan on testing to see how my tank is this weekend.
If all goes well I'll have a pair of Raphaels in the next weekend!
