Happy Birthday!

Chases your finger?? O.o LoL that would freak me out a alittle bit.
I put some photos uo on my thread of the Dario Darios if you wanna see. They are not the best pics. I gotta go out tomorrow and see if I can get the right food for them. The store wasn't feeding them the best food.

Very nice! Hopefully there's some girls in there.
My halfbeaks attack my finger if I put it in the tank, and they chase it all over. Never had fish that do that. o-o

I made my mind up and I am going to go get the Dario Dario! I got my tank ready for the most part minus a few more pants. Going to see if I can find some crypts, Anubias, and maybe some Java fern for the tank as well!

Dermogenys pusilla. I don't think flake is unhealthy for them as far as I know. I bought two (females) as they were all the store had left and I sort of wanted to "test" them before getting a whole school. So far I am liking them and I will probably get a few more soon.

What species of Halfbeaks? Celebes Halfbeaks?? Those are soo pretty! Though I was thiniking flake food wasn't heathy for them?? I might be thinking of a different fish. Though I do know (if this is the species you got) they need to be in groups. Usually being 3f -1m

Haha, thought you would like to know.. I did end up getting a pair of halfbeaks. They are pretty calm, eating flake food no problem. A lot less trouble than I expected, and I may have to pick up more of them.

Ok Thanks bunches!!

They are all surface feeders. They will probably eat bloodworms off the surface. Of course, tank raised vs wild caught makes a world of difference with these fish. You will have a much easier time with tank raised ones.

Hmmm I have read that celebes Halfbeaks ate bloodworms and such?? Now the Wrestling Halfbeaks were surfaces feeders? So kinda confused now??
