Well I went to the LFS today to have a look at the Congo Tetras but have decided against them. I could see immediately that they were bigger than I expected and would be out of proportion to the tank and the other species already in there. I guess they'll have to go on the four foot tank wishlist. Boo. Change Of Plan 2

However, all was not lost as I picked up another four Dwarf Neon Rainbowfish (1M:3F) to add to the ones I already have so they're in quarantine now. Although when I asked the guy if he had any, he said no - and then I spotted them mixed in with other species of Rainbowfish... Rolling Eyes

I haven't come across Indian Gouramis before - I wonder if it's just a posh name for a regular species? scratch

I love Gouramis too. I would love a trio of Sparkling Gouramis but alas, I've never seen them in any LFS. Wink

Oooh, they are nice fish!! Now that has got me thinking. I wonder if I could add any into my mmix of fish/tank size.

You see!! This is why I dont come on here often - you are all a bad influence on me! Evil or Very Mad Smile
