Meet My Baby, Garra Flavatra (panda Garra)

[julibob]

I have finally got some decent pics of my Garra Flavatra (aka Panda Garra). He is about 2 1/2" long, and such a beautiful and peaceful fish . Would recommend them to anyone (If you can get hold of them that is )

They only reach about 6cm, and are members of the Cypriniformes species. They like their water on the cooler side of tropical, and I feed mine algae wafers and cucumber. That's all I know really.

I never heard of that fish before. It looks a little like a CAE in shape.

That looks like a mix between a chinese algae eater and a goldfish.

I use to have 3, but lost them when my tank crashed . Some of my favorite fish, they would suck on my hand, but only when I kept them all together. I wish I could find them locally again. I miss them a lot.

Here was one of mine.
