    Very pretty! When I had my tank I had a Purple Flame Firefish...I think the firefish's are so neat>>especially watching them make there den and "blow" the substrate out of there mouth

    that's awesome. The purple was my second choice as firefish.

    Turns out i missed the deadline to get it shipped out for saturday delivery. So i emailed them to see if i can get a refund for the extra saturday delivery fee and see if they can have it arrive on wednesday instead, so i wont have to wait until next saturday for it to arrive

    thanks, it's officially arriving on wednesday. This weekend my dad are i are going to escape proof my tank, i have eggcrate but the firefish are known to jump through the eggcrate so i bought screen door stuff that will be going ontop of the eggcrate to prevent it jumping through the holes and small spaces between the equipment

    first outbrake of bubble algae. I only found one of the balls so hopefully more won't pop up but i'm sure they will.

    2 more days until my Helfrichi's Firefish! I can't wait!

    Well fish is in the tank. Mom said acclimation went well. Apparently the fish is small and is hiding. I can't wait until I get home from work

    Princess ate, she came out a little bit and got what floated by. I'm going to have to up my feeding to make sure she gets food because my clowns are pigs. It's a relief though that she does become alert and eats good
