well, some of you may have read about my total score on clear-out fish products at petcetera the other day. well today, as you may have also seen, i did it again. and on top of that, i made a total score of a trade with a fellow hobbyist in the area.
this person posted on a local fish forum that they were looking for plants and wanted to trade for "1 gourami and 7 tetras"
i always have cuttings so i thought it was a pretty sweet deal for me. I went over there this afternoon with 20 ludwigia cuttings and a ball of java moss and got the fish.
after posting on here i have identified the two i was unsure of. my score today was:
2 black skirt tetras - one has fin damage
2 x-ray pristella tetra - am i spelling that right?
a serpae tetra
a bleeding heart tetra
a honey sunset gourami
and a long finned zebra danio - not a tetra at all! the long finned leopard danios went nuts when he came into the tank and got all excited. they zipped around and around in circles having a blast
the gouramis are getting along. i have a pearl and a paradise in that tank already. i love watching their behaviour. the three gouramis grouped together and kind of swam around each other in a circle...almost like dogs sniffing each other. then the new one followed the pearl around for ages. they are all getting along well. i hope the black skirt tetras fins heal quickly.

The plecos add a large bioload; the rest of your fish do not. Do you have plans for them when they start to get larger?
