Afrikan Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 They should be fine, what are the tank measurements, just to get an overall idea of space etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanjury Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 I would say they should be ok, however keep a close eye on them and make sure you have a divider or spare tank handy just in case the male takes to the female.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMoon Posted May 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 There are young Blue Acara on a wholesalers list at the moment. hi, what do u mean? who do i contact? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Fish shops buy their fish off wholesalers.. The list that is out is what fish they stock.. Ask your local shop if they can get them in, or alternatively ask to just see the lists and see whats avaliable (many shops won't let you do this because they think its a secret how much their mark up is). Be aware there are several wholesalers and therefore several "lists" and some shops don't like to deal with certain wholesalers or do so infrequently..

Aquatopia Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Blue Moon - what a shame - there was an auction listing online recently for a Juwel Rio 125 aquarium and a successful breeding pair of Blue Acaras - tank size Volume: approx. 125 Litres Measurements: 81 x 36 x 50 cm. I believe the whole thing sold for $300. I even thought about getting it myself. At least it shows your size tank u have in mind will be fine and I am sure you wont have too much difficulty getting the fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMoon Posted May 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 hi, yea, I saw that ad, though I have no more room for tanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquatopia Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Double damn - could have bought it and sold you the fish ! Theres a male Acara on TM at the moment I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
