Identify My Fish! :-)

Those are Celebese Rainbow - Telmatherina ladigesi, very nice fish. I have
3M & 5F for a year now, and 2M still in Q-tank, waiting to go to main tank.

Thanks, that's exactly what it is. If the online prices are right, I
got a great deal. Since they didn't know what it was at petco, they
charged me 1.69 for it. (The price of Black Neon tetras). When it was
rung up, apparently black neons were on sale so I saved an additional
2.69 on them making them about $1.00 each.

So far they are doing very well in the tank and seem happy. I wish
there were more for me to buy.

Thanks again everyone!

I know lots of these identify question but I'd appreciate if you'd all
help me. I went to Petco on Thursday (apparently they get their new
shipments on Wed). I bought these fish as they only had 4 of them and
they were extremely pretty.

One thing - if they get their shipment on Wednesday they are putting
the fish out on sale pretty much as soon as they get them. I prefer
to buy from a place that quarantines; when I bought fish from another
store that doesn't I have *always* had problems - usually one fish
that is sick the next day, just in time to contaminate the tank before
dropping dead.

Just a thought for you, if you have an alternative to this shop.
