Golden White Clouds

[amesdrew]

Today I went to the LFS and picked up 6 golden white clouds! Really neat fish, my serpae actually seem to really like them too.

Anyone have any expirence with these guys? I have a tropical tank and I know white clouds prefer cooler water but the LFS said they can range in temp. thinking about bring the temp down to about 78 degrees would that work for them and my ram? or should i bring the temp down further?

They seem content for now, mixing in with the serpaes. Awesome to see those two types of fish in my planted tank!

They won't live as long in that temp, but they'll be fine.

Good to hear! they scared me last night, i have never had a true top dwelling fish, and they were sleeping last night on the top of the water! i thought they were all dead, but they are all fine. Just working out there spot...

I have a small school of them in a 14g, I've had them over a year at 78f. They are quite social and much better looking than regular white clouds. Good buy IMO.

I thought they were a good buy too. Cheaper than normal whiteclouds too, what do you feed them though? they don't seem to really be interested in the NLS community pellets i feed...

They have an incrediable ability to go into many different temperature ranges, they live the same in any temp and will thrive in any temp!

I feed mine NLS small fish formula which is 0.5mm which they took to very quickly, I also use NLS flake too.

Same here.
Also once a week I gave them bloodworms, and the liitle clouds are able to eat some !!!
