New Neons :D

[Scouser]

Thought I would record the arrival of my new friends here for you guys

Firstly I only paid for 3 but the friendly lady gave me 4 so it was more of a school




In gonna wait roughly 20mins before adding roughly 50ml of my tank to slowly drip them in

Looks awesome!! Maybe if they dont school enough you should think abt gettin 3-4 more because they school twice as much in my opinion and its awesome! When you have like 8 neons its super cool when you feed them because they swarm the food! Haha i hope they all arrived healthy!

I'm gonna get 4 more in a week

And yea they all got here great, Pets At Home is only 5 mins drive so it wasn't too traumatic.

They are settling in nicely though

Hi always exciting getting new fish As already said a few more would make a nice school of neons .If your local shop is not to far away you do not need to float the bag for so long,just add a little water from the tank over a fifteen minute period then 'tilt' the bag to let them swim out,which sometimes they can be reluctant too sometimes

Haha they are already schooling!!! Seems to be sucessful!

Well them being the Gfs pets they get new beds, water bottles, a lot of treats, toys and lots of other stuff needed to maintain a healthy home for em.

Heck the cage itself cost £89

That's more than my Rekord 600 cost!

And just the Tetra for now

Wondering what else would survive in here

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Haha well you habe so many options! Were you thinking More schools of fish? Or maybe bigger, non agressive fish?

Schools would be great really.

Maybe something to scavenge left over food too?

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Haha ya get another school of tetras! And for scavenging maybe a pleco like a bristlenose!
