Joshlikesfish Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Hey guys Cant figure out what the fish is. But they're yellow finned rasbora things. They have large finnage and I haven't seen very many. I think I remember them having blue eyes too. I must sound like a total novice :facepalm: haha Pictures or links would be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F15hguy Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 if its the furcatus Phoenix showed, then your description is rather accurate as one of their common names is yellow finned blue eye if not, where did you see them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshlikesfish Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Thanks for the replies guys. P44, you got it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbird73 Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 I have some and they are vy cool fish, DH calls them "the helicopter fish" because of the way they flutter their split dorsal fins when they flare. They colour up so much more once they settle into the tank, a lot more colourful than in the LFS. Get some!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
