BTW, if you like the Celebese than you would kill for Pseudomugil furcatus,
similar size but much more prettier (also cost 3.5x more). I have 9 in
Q-tank, hehe :-)

Hi Ben,

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.

Good luck.

Oh, great. I had just about gotten over wanting any new fish, and then
I made the mistake of looking at this site. Now once again visions of
a tank room are running wildly through my head, this time chock full
of rainbows.

Sigh.

Hello there

I could be mistaken but it looks like a rainbow. Possibly a Pacific Blue
Eye. Chuck Gadd over in the plants group would be able to tell you.

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.

(They also had things I'd never seen there before, rope fish, panda
corries, etc).

I appreciate the identification.

TIA,
Ben

I shared the same feeling.

I once walked into a Koi / pond LFS office and can't help myself but just
staring at the 6ft planted tank with a school of 10 - 12 fully growth
Boesebani rainbows, and my jaw gone stiffed for prolong ...... LOL

Let go change some water to kill off the image.....

In my crazed fish-room dreams, I go one of two ways... either a bunch
of smaller tanks so that I can keep all the species that interest me,
or one big honking tanks around 150 gallons, with colorful cichlids.

Fortunately, I can't afford either approach.

I'll have to go the many-smaller-tanks route... i'm pretty sure one of the
newts ate one of my dwarf puffer fish... can we say 'NOT impressed!' geesh...
and i was worried about the newts being harassed.... and don't even get me
started on how the minnows, newts, and loaches reacted to the brine shrimp!!
crickey... i had to put the remaining puffer back in isolation to feed it and
for its own safety
