    Some nice Parosphromenus in the small tanks, pencils (Nannostomus unifasciatus and what looks like Nannostomus trifasciatus). Mrs Toh calls the "N. trifasciatus" one-line pencil so it might be something else. Pencil experts please ID.

    Lots of P. weitzimani. Nothing new, but they look healthier than the earlier batches... must be the survivors of that shipment.

    The "green" ottos are in the bag in the shrimp tank behind when I saw them.

    Agree that the Parosphromenus looks very nice...there's one in particular with very striking colouration. I saw the non-trifasciatus pencils in the bag, are the unifasciatus or beckfordi? I thought they were beckfordi at first glance

    Was there this morning to check out the 'green' oto. They are in a bag which makes observing or even see how they look like difficult.

    Gave up. Bought a bag of malayan shrimps instead. haha

    The non-trifasciatus pencils you guys are talking about are the ones which have a bold black lower part of its body and usually hangs around at an angle?
