Here's some new pictures in my album. You can see them bigger if you click on them, so they're easier to see than photobucket lol.

and i was wondering, how many days should i wait before i think of adding tankmates? i know they won't always work together but i don't want to stress him out, and he seems pretty docile. how many should i concider for the 5 gal that he's in. i was just gonna get some little ones

[rb500]

i'm not sure if i want to add tankmates, he would be happier alone.

[dramaqueen]

He would be fine on his own. He's pretty!

[rb500]

thanks drama lol, i know you can't really see him too well, i had to take them on my phone, he is such a beautiful color though

lol, no neon purple, bet there is what you could call neon blue on his dorsal and back fin.

oh, and i have a question. i know its not the right board, but i think he may have a little fin rot? the end of his back fin is all gray and dead looking. it folds in like a smile whenever he changes direction or moves. maybe??
