altolamprologus Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Those are crazy cool. Aren't they? I've wanted one for a long time so I figured why not two? Male and female of course so they don't eat each other Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Well I should have seen that coming Real goldfish, or goldfish crackers? Cause I thoroughly believe you would fill a tank with goldfish crackers. Ok ok fine. I'm getting a PAIR of these Sweet baby jesus, can't speak a word of english yet. And kat, I'd certainly hope you wouldn't put a goldfish in a 2.5g tank. Goldfish crackers, yes. Nom nom nom. Link to comment

You dont think They are pretty big for a 20?Also, how will you sex them? I thought it was impossible to tell? They're not that big. They can get up to 9 inches, but they more commonly stay around 4 inches. Males are more colorful and hairier than females. It's not a definite way of sexing, but it should work well enough. Most anglers are sexually amorphic, but luckily for me, that's not the case with striateds. I'm shooting for individuals about 2-4 inches in length. I want them to be smallish but still big enough to sex. Link to comment

Spirofucci Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Those are the coolest fish .......ever! Whare the heck are you gonna find those guys? Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 Interesting. Wouldn't territorial aggression be a problem? Also bioload? I'm sorry for the questions, just curious how your doing this. I'm fully aware it's going to be a large bioload. I have a lot of sand, good rock, plenty of macro algae, and I'm planning on getting a GFO reactor soon. As for territorial aggression, it won't be a problem. Anglers are fine with others of the opposite sex. Those are the coolest fish .......ever! Whare the heck are you gonna find those guys? I have a really cool job that lets me get whatever I want I got my new camera today. Since it takes a while to dry after getting wet, I figured I would give you guys a couple FTS first All my eucheuma died a couple days after getting it, but I have a few other species on the way to help fill in the empty spots.

metrokat Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Very very nice Alto. Yay for cameras, especially the ones that can get wet. My eucheuma died also, but not before it turned red and broke into bits. Took about a month. Link to comment

Isn't it? I just knew I had to have it when I saw it. I've seen a couple neon green ones, but never solid pink. Link to comment

Euphyllia Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Ooooh nice progress. I like how they're all yellow and shizz. I like yellow. Never had it in any of my tanks though. Wasn't interested in LPS much. Link to comment
