[StarBelliedSneetch]

im very sorry if this was already posted but can someone point me in the direction of a good sorce of info for red empresses i think they are gonna be my next investment

Nice choice of fish, the males are absolutely beautiful the females
however remain pretty drab and this is worth considering if you intend
to breed them as you'll ideally need a 1:3 male/female ratio'
Here's some info from wikipedia, good luck with the new fish!

thank you for the info. i do intend on breeding. they are awesome looking arent they i saw an adult at my lfs for 60 and wanted him so so bad.

Best of luck with the breeding project, one thing for sure you won't
have any probs off loading any offspring.

You'll need at least a 75 gallon tank, larger would be better.
