Just got in and Im acclimating the lil guy and gal now. The Striped Raphael catfish is a wonderful little guy. They are so pretty and a peaceful bottom dweller that do better solo. They do not mind my low PH and fit right into my SA tank. I also picked up another female convict. The salesperson said that the Clown Barb were as if not more aggressive than the tiger barbs, which I know all about their aggression. I read that the clown barbs were peaceful, but this time around, decided to take her advice on that, so I got the Striped Raphael instead which is one that I had always liked the looks of.
Now I am done for awhile.. until I find a nice Betta to go into the divided tank with Phoenix. Now I can relax... lol..

about a year, no photos though, he darts at any sign of light. When he was younger he would stay out more, but as he got older he is more afraid of light.
