Badis bengalensis

Hey Dixon,

I believe I may have Scarlet Badis in my tank.

I purchased a few quite a while ago, and they coloured up beautifully - a lovely red with brilliant blue stripes. Unfortunately, the one I had left ended up a little unwell looking, so I put him in a breeding net so I could keep an eye on him and spot treat him. In another unfortunate happenstance, one of the Panchax I had decided he looked pretty good too, and when i came home one day, the Panchax had jumped in the breeding net and eaten my lovely badis for breakfast :evil: :cry::cry::x .

Needless to say I was not impressed.

I went to my LFS and asked them to keep an eye out for some more, and they got a shipment in not long afterwards. They didn't look anything like the one I had, and I was a little worried they would be normal Badis badis which are a bit larger than I like; but, the ones I purchased seem to have coloured up to an orangey red with touches of blue here and there. They're no where near as pretty as my first ones, but they are still pretty and it's fun to watch them change colours.

If I can get my hubby's STUPID camera working, I'll post a pic or two of my ones.

Hope that helps!
