Picked up a trio of ventralis today. Hope they can dilute the aggression of my compressiceps.

I think they are bred fishes, no clue of their variant. Maybe Teck Nam will know.

they are from the recent shipment where you got the fries.

i was wondering if anyone would happen to know the locality of boops sp "black".....was it mpimbwe? all of my boops got wiped out except for this adult and a few juveniles.it was the "runt" male of the original colony thats why the ventrals are so short.

They were bought sometime back at the size of 1.5".

Now 3.5" to 4", I finally brought them home after raising them up to this size

I hope I didn't post in the wrong section, as they sift sand sometimes.

This one is a suspected sub-dominant among the harem. If not, there will only be one male while the rest females.
