After lusting after these cool fish in magazines and books I finally found some at Exotic Aquatics a couple of months ago. They've proven to be some of my favorite fish so far. They school tightly and are very active. They're bright orange fins are a sight to behold. It's too bad my photography skills and camera aren't up to the task of getting a better picture.

Very nice! They're about the same size of Harlequins?

Yes, maybe a tad bigger even.

I thought Scales has these in stock.

They might. That would be great if they're making into the hobby as a mainstay.

They look much better then they did in the store! Cool looking fish.

Yeah, they were young, stressed and poorly lit in EA. It makes a world of difference to see a fish in a planted tank.

I had a group of six for a little more than 3 years and lost 5 while doing a large WC ( I should know better!) but one still alive and it is a beauty.
The only time I saw them here in Houston they also had a blue variety, but it was not as nice as the red type.
Cheers,
Luis
