  1. Andrew (or anyone in PM), do you know what conditions they keep the eel in? as I remember seeing a sucker in with it.
  2. Yes they have a jardini and used to have a very large silver arowana. Ive always liked the look of those 'strawberry blues'. If you look to the tank at the beginning of the wet pets area they have a native eel aswell.
  3. never be the same without the arowana and huge red tail catfish
  4. I dont know about those ones at wet pets, last time I saw them they were very very small and skinny. they usually dont have a high survival rate at that size. I got mine for $118 and he was already 3" and as solid as a rock.
  5. siamese tigers are nice, mines about 5" now. cost a bit, and whether or not the one you get eats flakes or just strictly live food is just chance. luckily enough mine eats flakes.
  6. did anyone ever buy those really small siamese tigers from wet pets?

    chromide

    they're at it again! walked into Animates today to see some small orange chromide in a tank with keyholes. Obviously not a brackish tank!
  9. thats pretty sad, chocolates turn into pretty nice fish.

    uaru

    I have two, I meant to say 'ones' in the last post

    uaru

    your right midas the have lost their juvenile colouration. The one I have are only like 1-2" so havent yet.
  12. Benny

    uaru

    Ira, if you really want a uaru give wet pets a ring. they had one about a week ago.
  13. Benny

    uaru

    yeah I saw the JD, If I had a larger tank i would probably get him. Did yopu watch him for a while? he attacked one of those at least 1' plecos.

    uaru

    Your out of luck Ira. I walked into animates and asked them about these 2 little cichlids in with some africans. The guy said they are triangle cichlids, but didnt know anything else about them. So I got the two and he gave them to me as assorted cichlids at $19 each. Uarus are usually about $50 each. You see sometimes small places get unusual fish that they know very little about. like do you know the place in Tawa? they had a fire eel not so long ago.

    uaru

    warren, when do they lose those juvenile colours and get their adult colours?
  16. Benny

    uaru

    does anyone else keep uaru?
  17. dovis are apparently the baddest cichlid on the planet.
  18. indeed it doesnt stop fish from getting in here.
  19. can we get dovii here?
  20. yeah i saw that. although I was looking at the JD more. he looks really small compared to all those oscars!
  21. speaking of aggressive cichlids- have any of you wet pets regulars seen the big red devil and red tail cat square off? when I was there the red devil kept on charging at the red tail cat but then backing off.

    Aquaterrariums

    if it wasnt for the only 20-30l of water an archer would do great if you made the water slightly brackish. It would love it! you could have heaps of plants, seal the top, throw in some live crickets and watch the archers natural behaviour.
  23. nah i am not too sure. I myself aquired 2 uaru today in the most unassuming of places. i walked into animates and asked about these 2 cichlids, which they had no idea about. So I got 2 for $30.
  24. hope you got a male! very impressive when they get older. Did you get the one from the tank next to the one with the juvenile arowana?
  25. yeah i already knew you did!
