    checked out the pict and although I have no experience with them, they sorta look like the farowella's.
    Did happen to find what (according to the reviews) appears to be a good book covering them though>>

    (expensive in my opinion, but if interested I'd check the local library)

    Recently i have seen on some of the other forums that they have been breeding these. As far as care. If you have them in a tank with live plants and driftwood you will be ok. Also it looks like they survive best with a PH of 7.2 from what i have read.

    I've seen these at Pet Forum in C'Ville recently.

    thanks guys, that helps. the tank there in has white sand and lots of plants and driftwood so i think theyl be happy. I may even try to get a pair and see if they breed in my tank.
