They got in a shipment of damasonis (sp?) (maybe it was dubosi) that look tiny.  ...instead of brwnish stripes it was black with white specles all over it.
cutest little thing i saw! if it were for sale i'd have grabbed it!

Duboisi fry are black with white spots, and seriously cute.

Taht's what I thought, but it was the only one int eh tank with those markings, the rest i guess had grown a bit to loose the spots.

far to cute, too bad it dosnt retain the speckles...:(

You should read about them before you make an impulse purchase.  They do well only in groups, and have different diets than most malawis.

Thanks Adam, I had decided to pass on it anyways. my 30 is fully stocked now anyways so it was a null issue anyways.

I AM getting my dad's 80 gal though after the newyear so there is hope for me yet! (now i just have to convince my wife that it's OK to have 2 tanks in the basement!)

I moved these posts out of the Super pet thread into their own thread here.

Thanks, ya, sorry about that. I hate it when threads get hijacked in my own forum. I'm surprised i let it happen to myself.
i humbly apologize.  :-\

artw

no apologies necessary. :)   duboisis are pretty cute :D

Sorry didn't realize it was thread hijack! I guess it wouldn't of been if I had been to the store to actually see the fish in question.
