    These guys came in I think last year. Price was over 2 red notes per piece and naturally not many people bought them since they look nice in schools

    Guess I missed that one, anyway would look nice in my 2ft cube. Yes, they are generally kept in schools. Intend to get 10 pcs at least.

    Thanks for info.

    I used to get them for S$35 a piece. Not the most common pencilfish to get and not exactly popular due to the lack of colors.

    And they are jumpers!

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    For a fraction of the price of N. espei, the normal golden pencilfish looks as gorgeous!!!

    You purchase 1 or even 2 pairs of apisto at a time. This pencilfish need to be purchase at least 5-6 or even more at a time to have the schooling effect.
    If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
