Hi!
I picked up these from a LFS in a wet market today. Please give me your frank comments about the demekins. HappyBuddha shook his head when he saw them but refuse to tell me why. They cost $5 each. |

They all look very nice to me, lets hope they have completed their decoloring phase if not tri-color can olso become mono in a while.

Now that's something that I never get to figure out, where do you guys keep your fish, you are buying on impluse, hand carried back from XXXXX, buy from a special source... etc

Two of them are Allan's demekin as seen in the 1st two pics. The other two are mine as seen here. They have gone through 3 weeks of QT and I've combined them in one bigger tub for their final week of QT. |

Life's more interesting this way. But I rarely buy new fishes leow; damn tough to flush them away ya know? |
