Nice...pictures..
I can't get clear pictures of mine..whenever I'm admiring them, they stay in front of the tank and flare, but everytime I position the camera infront of them slowly, the swim away..doh.
How's the kalimantan barat and sintang?
My kalimantan showing colours already..

cute
how many did you get?

[Nevada]

hi all,

Nicholas- i also spend bout 3 hours just to sit down n position my camera ready...i suggest that you hold your camera near the tank n move them really slowly to the fish.but it is really spent a lot of time.

mine shown colours too ... it is the nicest i guess =p

Wat do u feed them wif? Does it takes 2 frozen daphnia readily?

[Nevada]

hi Bfg,

i feed them with half frozen dephnia.last time i tried to feed them with one whole block of dephnia but i think it is a bit too much..i've also keep other fish like rasboras and espei.if i give too much dephnia, i am afraid that the espei will eat them the most.even if i feed them with half dephnia once in a day, the espei is really2 fat...stomach looks like going to burst....

did you keep other fish also in your tank??
parosphromenus?

cheers,
nevada

3 Hours! The longest I waited was 10 mins[] Maybe after exams, when I have more time..

i bought a pair of sintangs at biotope too.
haven't really been able to have a close look at them cos
my tank quite densely planted.
the male is making a gap in the wood as its home and the female is in the plants.
maybe should go to biotope and get more hehe []
btw, can feed them frozen blood worms or spirulina/sera o-nip tabs?

[BFG]

Thanks Nevada! No I do not have any paros at all. Just like 2 know their diet.

[pipsqueak]

I've tried frozen blood worm, but their mouths are too small...and they didn't take chopped frozen blood worms readily, not sure about the sera o-nip tabs...
daphnia's your best bet!

[Nevada]

just got the time to reply =p ... just wanna let u all know,paros do eat blood worm.just that u've got to cut them until really fine...they love it!! =)
