LFS hooked it up

[Twe3k]

So i went in today to my lfs to buy 10 Bobaras, they were on sale 10 for Y700.. when i got home there was 20 in the bag:) i really only wanted 10 but hey.. im not complaining..thumbs2:

[robflanker]

What type of fish is it?

It looks like a harlequin rasbora.

Cool that you got 20 instead of 10 but make sure it doesnt screw up your stocking

[brianyu]

:18: any full shot at your tanks after the fish is in ?:18:

yeah really.. im alittle worried also.. i really only wanted 10..


and i will get a full tank shot after the fish are done acclimating..

[robflanker]

ok... 20 fish is an awful lot to add in one go too. Its been done before, but make sure you do some daily tests for the next few days and just keep an eye on it.

So, what type of fish is it?

[Lady Hobbs]

Nice. I can buy 40 fish at one time and never get one free one.

[rich311k]

Thats cool. They are little fish should not cause a problem. I am with you Lady H, I order 6. I get 5.

[Twe3k]

yeah, i was really suprised, because i told them 10 and then went upstairs to buy some declorine came back it was already bagged up.. got home and was like Whoa!.. Yes and daily check will be done, until everything is in the green. Also will post up full tank shot here in a minute when the camera finish it charged.

[BirdOfPray]

Wow, 10 free fish is impressive! I like the way my LFS does it... when I bought my 9 cardinal tetras they deliberately charged me for 7 -- so I got free fish but without the worry of having more than I wanted. When I asked about it, they said not to worry about it, just buy all of my fish there. ;) No problem, since that's my plan anyway. Haven't seen better-looking fish anywhere else in town!

[Twe3k]

heres a picture as promised

[Jaster]

Thats great! My fishguy does that for customers too. A couple extra if he catches them while scooping out what people want. (at least for the smaller cheaper fish,and for things like feeder fish and crickets) It brings people back... it may cost him a few buck up front but for the amounts people drop after (like me...) he more then makes up for it.
Congrats on the great score! thumbs2:

[Twe3k]

:19: thanks Jaster

[nickn313]

lovely tank Twe3k!! thumbs2:

[Red]

I like the tank very much!

[Sarkazmo]

Nice, Tweak, it's really coming along! 10 for 700 Yen is a GREAT deal but 20??? omg. You're so lucky!

Rob, they're Rasboras.

[robflanker]

Sark - thats what i believe; im waiting for the OP to confirm cos ive never heard of bobaras

[Twe3k]

ops typo, sorry guys they are Rasboras.. thanks guythumbs2: .. i wanted add atleast another type of schooling fish, but i think im pretty stocked w/ these 20 Rasboras..

[Afk4Jfk]

Nice find... love the tank

[Twe3k]

thanks afk4jfk:22:

[bushwhacker]

tank looks great tweak. and i dont think your anywhere close to being overstocked.. one concern tho the plant on the right front i belive is a dracena. and its not aquatic.

[Twe3k]

thats what i been told:).. im keeping an eye on it.. it looks healthy:) but as soon as it goes bad.. out it comes..

[HeatherB]

Oh I like it! Once I bought 6 fancy guppies and they tried to say I got 10! I was like, uh, NO! We literally had to scoop them out one by one into another container to show them it was only 6.

I like the tank! I looks really nice!

[Lady Hobbs]

Heck, you got enough room for 20 more.

[Sarkazmo]

At current exchange rates that comes out to $.38 a fish US... wow.

[Twe3k]

haha nice isnt it? when they all are swimming around.. it looks like a busy intersection in the sky of the Jetson... can i really add more fish?

I would wait a day or two for the bio-filter to grow if the tank has been cycled for awhile. If its only been a week or two since cycling I'd wait a week. Tank looks great and you definitely have room for more. Maybe a few bottom feeders like corys or some plecos.

[King Tut]

Tank is looking great!!! I would say you have more room. and I agree maybe a school of cory. Would make a great addition!!!

[KeithA]

Did they just charge you for 10?
BTW, love the tank ;)

[VIP]

wow ! what a great extra you ve got there !

your tank looks really nice too ... and peacefull.
i agree with people, i think you still have place for an other school...
