Thank you all. I feel quite proud now!

Thank you. Two of the Rainbows have coloured up quite orange and two have stayed more yellow. Keep trying to get better close ups of them all but am pretty rubbish with the camera!

I love the look of this tank at the moment. There's 14 Oto's in it somewhere! Hope you like.

This is the best pic I can get!

I picked up a couple of these today after waiting ages to find them. I researched for a long time in the hope that I could identify the Siamese Algae Eater and not end up with a Flying Fox or Chinese Algae Eater. Did I get it right?

I think another way to tell is to look at the black spot on the side. If it's plain black it's a male, if it has blue specles in the black spot, it's female.

I've just got 12 Volcano Rasboras. Has anyone got any experience of them. All I can find is that they grow to about 4cm. They are to go in our 200L tank with Angels , Dwarf Gourami. Swordtails, Otos and plecs. Hoping they will shoal nicely

I don't have a spare tank at the moment so could...

Okay. I gave in to common sense and your valued advice and the Lab has gone back to the LFS. Got 4 Boesmani Rainbows instead. How come everything ends up costing more money?!! Thanks to all for your hepl.

Which fish is he likely to harm out of my stock?

:sad: This is so frustrating. I had researched all the fish for this tank over the weeks it was cycling. All except the Yellow Lab, that is! I fell in love with him in the LFS yesterday and bought him on impulse when the man said he would be fine with the fish I had! I know I've got be sensible...

I have a fully fishless cycled 200L deep tank, moderately well planted and with bogwood, rock and a fine to medium gravel substrate. The present stock, which seem to be living happily together are: 2 Angels 4 powder blue Dwarf Gouramis 5 Blue Cochu Tetras 1pair young German Blue Rams 1female...
