Wingin' It Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) So I got a few requests, asking how my TFD fish order went...and it went well...only a couple of missing fish and a couple of deaths. I'm happy with my fish, and here are a few pics. This isn't a very good shot, but I got 4 young Scarlet Badis Badis. Here's a school of about 100 Neon Tetras...Guess i'm going to have to sell some! This is probably not the best picture I could get of an Atabapo Butterfly Pleco (L168) There are 3 in the tank and are really different (at least for me) Here's a slightly better pic... These are the African Butterfly Fish...there is a 2nd one and is more colorful, but was not being co-operative. There are more fish, but i'm too lazy to post 'em up here. TTFN! I edited to add more pics. They turned out a bit better i think? Edited November 26, 2009 by Wingin' It Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wackinator Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 sweet picture, know any local store that sells badis badis? I only saw them at pisces once and that almost a year ago. A school of a hundred neons is what some dream about lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted November 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 I've only seen a couple for sale once at Tanks A Lot in the SW, and then I posted on here that I saw them and then they were gone so fast...lol When I saw these on the list I couldn't help myself but get some. I think my 30 gallon is a bit too small for a long term school of 100 neons...lol Though I must admit they do look cool! I had to get that many for the 'Special' price...so it was worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaykit Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Very cool. I really like the L168. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) Nice looking fish Catherine! I am so glad it worked out and can't wait to get in on the next order. Our family motto is now "25 clown loaches!" Theresa Edited November 27, 2009 by Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted November 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 LOL...yes indeed...25 Loaches at that price was an amazing deal...good thing is that there will always be another order! I just can't help myself, though we'll have to get lots more people in on it as a great big thanks to Joe at TFD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishclubgirl Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Good to hear that it went well and your badis are well. I found some at a LFS awhile ago and had no luck with them. I was sad as they're such a pretty little fish. Anyhow congrats on your new additions!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleshgear Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 i have 60 ish cardinals in a 45 gallon medium planted tank along with too many guppies to count. and they are all fine, i dont even need to change the water very often. it has been 3-4 months with out a water change, only top ups also, all the fish are fine from the tfd order, except for one, the male L168 died. so i am in for another order, i need more of those plecos. and maybe some more cories. you can never have enough cories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Aww...that sucks that your male died...they're definately cool plecos. My tetras are still kickin' the bucket...at least a couple every day. It'd be nice if they just lived darn it! I think another order will have to wait now until the weather gets a bit nicer. I'm going to keep an eye on the list of fish...I can't help myself. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXEchoXx Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I like how you set your tank up. Why did you buy 100 neon tetras? -roll- got them for a good price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Thanks...the 100 neons were a min. for the special price...i'm glad I bought that many 'cause I suffered a 'few' deaths...but they've stopped now, so I still have a really decent school of 'em.
