Default New addition - Compressiceps Yellow and Gold Head

After struggling for a long time, finally I manage to squeeze a tank so I can purchase a few pcs of Altos. They are real nice looking fish. Added the Yellow and Gold Head. Top 2 pictures are Yellow, bottom 2 pictures, Gold Head. Hope to learn from the experts here in keeping them.

Thanks YM. They are still very small to talk about quality. I saw a lot of postings, some bigger yellow are not yellow but toward brown or even black. Hopefully, I get a few pieces yellow will be good enough.

haha for now at least the body shape looks decent lah. colour wise it is always a bet. sometimes buy white but it has never turned white for once. and most of the times depends what variants too. do keep the updates of them coming got full tank pic??? what they eat???
btw, where u saw those yellow comps??? so far this is the first time i see locals posting about yellow comps. in the past usually is yellow calvus.
