    Coincidence, I have a pair of the exact same and they are by far the most active and nicest in the tank at the minute. Do yours chase each other everywhere?

    Your Biggest Mistakes...

    Well I am just starting out but have a cycled tank with fish in some two months old (the whole setup I mean) but I had the advantage of having had a pond (still have) which is stocked so knew bits and pieces. Seems much of the talk is leaning towards fault with the peeps who sold the...
