new arrivals

I went to the lfs today to get some more panda corys. They had a tank full of them but they were not selling them until next week , so instead I came away with some dwarf chain loaches

Have popped them in the q tank for a while just to check they are ok, and put some bits and pieces in with them for shelter etc, but they are zooming around the tank like mad, - all over the place from top to bottom.

Can't wait to add them into the big tank, and will go and get the pandas tomorrow. Hope they all get on ok - it means I have quite a few 'bottom dwellers' so hope I havent done the wrong thing.

Impulse buying again!!!

they sound very nice diana when you get them in the big tank will there be some pics

As long as the only loaches in the tank are the chain loaches, all should be ok

Chain loaches are a bit rude t other loaches - just to give you fair warning (ie zebra loaches would be mercilessly battered by chain loaches)

they are the only ones - their tank mates aat the bottomn are panda corys and 2 BN's, so hopefully it will be ok.

I knew I shouldnt have gone to the lfs today - I just felt like buying something!

its a nice feeling getting new fish

Oh how lovely, Diana. I love loaches.

They are MAD fish

The whole tank is in shock I think because these 4 keep whizzing round like they are on speed . They go from 0 to 60 like a Ferrari!

I'm sure they will settle down....

if it makes you feel better - I woke up today and found myself in the LFS - so as I was there, and as Id used their floor for the night, I figured I ought to pad out the tills a little

Oh the dangers of going to a lfs when you have money in your pocket! Are they dear Diana - I have read somewhere that they are costly because they are captive bred?
