    I just got one on a flash sale from Imperial Tropicals here in FL. These are the most beautiful fish I've ever seen.

    Great video and amazing how you have so many projects!! I’m considering kali tawa for my 40B river tank that houses stiphodon gobies. Are the kali tawa peaceful with slower fish and do they keep to the top while feeding? Wondering if they’d eat all the algae wafers for the gobies at the bottom 😅 Thx for any insight!

    Oh great! Now I want some Tawa 🙄 Guess I'll be waiting awhile for those 😆 Ready to put in an order for my first rainbows most likely M. rubrivittata or kamaka. I'm in the UK so harder to get anything rare.

      Its a stunning fish! It may take time for the Tawa to get to the UK but they are in Germany and the Netherlands right now. Alex Carslaw of Fishbreederscotland has an assortment of rare rainbows to sell in Scotland. A shop called Wildwoods also has access to some rare rainbows too! Best of luck Lily!

      My fish guy at The Aquatic Store Bristol is excellent and I believe he may have contacts in Germany. Thanks for the info 👍🏻

    What fish is it that keeps zipping up and down in the back corner of the tank? He just keeps going up and down. Zoom zoom zoom. LOL

    That last tank needs Erythromycin or Ultralife green slime remover. You can never have good plant growth with that smothering plants.
    That Rainbow looks red white and blue. Going to be impressive in a year.
