I saw one of these at my LFS today and absolutely loved him. He was about 5 inches (inluding 3 inch tail) and looked quite healthy. I couldnt find much info on them and was wondering if anyone has heard of them or has any experience/knowledge to share. I would love to put him in my 55 gallon. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I had a whiptail!

Theyre cool but need REALLY good water conditions like chocolate gouramis or pencilfish

My dad and I went to an auction today and bought two of these! One for his tank and one for mine! Right now they are in quarentine, but in a few weeks they will go in their respective homes. I am really excited about them! They are soo NEAT!

Ya, we got a great deal on them - $11 for both. I would love to post some pics, but they are REALLY shy so we don't see them often.
