Hey fishy, how much do Congos cost around your way? They are really expensive here in Jersey.

My work could get $30 for mine:D
But the going rate for juvi males is around $10 unless you want junk.I built my school one-two fish at a time all from diff places I want to breed them.I've sold more than I have trying to make the "perfect"school .

beautiful fish!! i agree.

how long have you had them?

how long before the males develop the long dorsal fins, and long tail fins? i have 4 in my tank, about 3" length each, but all of them don't have the long fins like yours yet. maybe mine are all females??

the male in the pic is like 3yrs old had him 2yrs even at an inch a black line should be seen in the tail.Females have NO extention on the tail fin.

Geez, you guys have to pay through the roof for congos, in scotland you can get them for as little as $4.50 (juv)

Yeah, they're my next project. Home many do think for a 40g (no other fish)?

Nice fish!
