RarePets Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 I got these fingerlings a couple of days ago. The hope is that they will grow big enough to fit in our large aquarium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brettc777 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Cool fish. When I started in fish when I was 17 I like the look of these guys. I put one in my community tank. I noticed the barra acting strange turn side up and waving side to side while angling in towards a guppy. The movement was hypnotic. I woke up the next day.... where are the guppies? looked at the 3cm barra... it was as wide as it was long lol. It ate guppies which were only a tad bit smaller than he was!

RarePets Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Sadely all is not well with these fish. Started with two that were hiding alot they were both dead yesterday morning. When they were struggling I figured the current was to high with the power filter, switched over to an air filter. Today the last one is hiding and not eating so it looks like the $6 each is another $18 down the drain. There were larger sizes available, sometimes you think you can keep any fish alive.
