Used to be three 1 female & 2 males but female died after getting finrot after spawning. 1x 30L siamese fighter tank seperated into 4 compartments. Currently have 1x blue veiltail (Borris) and 1x 3/4 Crown tail purple/red/blue (Sammy). Also looking for a plain bright red fighter and have a red and black crowntail onn order waiting for him to grow a little. Also have small tank with 18 goldfish fry.

Dancer17 Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Do you remember where you got that tree root ornament? I got it from Hollywood fish farm in Auckland but Im sure most fish/pet shops would have the same kind of stuff you may just have to keep an eye out for one.

Dancer17 Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 How big are your surinamensis? They range from 6-10 cms. I have five of them and got them all at the same time. They havent grown too much since I got them so hopefully they wont grow too big in my tank as I know they are suppose to grow quite big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidb Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Do you remember where you got that tree root ornament? they are made by Aqua-One Dixon. Get your LFF to order you in.. that looks like the XL size- they come in 3 different sizes I think... And Welcome to FNZAS Dancer17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
