Thanks for the feedback.

I think whats important is to have those service oriented tank inhabitants.

Bristlenose Pleco
SAE
Otos
Florida Flagfish
Amanos
various types of snails

You also should have those tight schooling fish that are the most saught after

Cardinals
Rummy Nose
Harliquin Rasbora

Obviously there is more to add to each list but this gives you an idea of whats important to these types of communities. Stay away from obvious store bread and butters like mollies and platies.

No mollies or guppies or those sort of things. We are focusing our fish selection in schooling fish and fish for planted tanks. We are working on getting a few different types of otos, paratocinclus, dwarf loaches, etc that are pretty rare.

We will keep you guys posted. We take feedback very seriously.
Keep those suggestions coming.

thanks

the 'micro' livebears would be cool as well:
least killifish
Neoheterandria elegans (forgot the common name, don't know if the genus is correctly spelled as well)
the 'mini' white clouds (also forgot their true name)

Thanks again...keep them coming.

My LFS just got in some type of algae eating Goby. I wish I had some more info on it, but it was apparently sent by mistake, so she had zero details about it. It seemed like an awesome fish, I watched it clean some GSA off an Anubias.

And are you planning on carrying any other inverts?
It would be great to have a reliable source for RCS, yellow shrimp, snowball shrimp, etc.

Keep up the good work!

leviathan0 · 08-27-2008, 05:13 PM

I'd put in my request for Celetaia persculpta.

The algae-eating goby is probably a species of Stiphodon, since these seem to be popping up a lot recently.

**Karackle** · 08-27-2008, 05:27 PM

Oh speaking of gobies, the true freshwater bumblebee gobies would be awesome, not the brackish water ones you see in most fish stores but the
"schooling bumblebee gobies" (Brachygobius aggregatus)
and/or
the Burmese Bumblebee goby (Brachygobius xanthomelas)

Unless I'm the only one interested in these little guys

**ingg** · 08-28-2008, 04:45 AM

Red Niger Otos! Been waiting to see them for over a year, and we have some of the better (apparently; we have otos, apistos, shrimp, rummynose, etc, always available locally) LFS around in the Baltimore/DC area.

I've seen a Stiphodon in a local shop, not sure which species though - awesome fish. Guy won't sell them, been trying to get them for months now out of his display, hehe.

Madagascar Rainbowfish
Drapefin Barb

We hope to bring some Drape Fin Barb in our next shipment. This one:

We are also going to be getting a series of ottos and paratocinclus rarely seen and a pretty nice Rhinelocaria. They are all excellent alage eaters.

I am trying to see where from are some of the gobies you guys have requested.

PasD · 08-28-2008, 05:11 PM

How about some norman's lampeye. They're a really nice schooling killifish.
