Just got a few of these guys and took some shots of them the other day. Very intriguing little guys and do change to a wierd mottled pattern sometimes.

So red whiptails are foerschis? Anyone know what L-number foerschis actually are?

Cheers,

Hey GP

Most of them are around the 10cm mark now (not including the whip), with a few a bit bigger.

Very nice!

Forgive me for asking, but what would one of those reds cost as a ballpark?

Can you put whiptails, royal whiptails and reds in together? Are thye territorial, or do they interbreed?

Thanks,

Thanks, will do once the tank is cycled, if I can keep them with the others? My other tank is going to a new home tomorrow morning.

Yeah they've definitely grown alot since I picked them up that day. However I've lost 2 from being sucked up by the internal powerfilter :cry:
