i will say the ornates still having juvenile markings at that size whereby CBs would have faded. probably cos they grow much faster in the wild. have to see how they develop as time pass by to see the difference.

ya. thats why i said "fish will never buy finish". i always tell myself my tank is exploding. but i keep adding fish.

it was after u left i ask them who was that guy then i know it was u.

heard that ornates r aggressive. i still prefer the ornate i have in my tank so far. those didn't really impress me much.

Heh Your fish high quality ma. I just choose the two darkest ones from the batch... apparently one of them had cloudy eyes as pointed out by the bros so I took another.... back to stareing at them infront of my tank!

Have a great chilly weekend!

my fish is just what i like as they are. to me there is no such thing as gd/bad or high/low quality. everyone have their own preference when comes to fish.

i keep for myself to see and enjoy the hobby. even if someone come tell me it's a very low/bad quality fish, i will still like it as much as i do now.
