So I finally sourced more Green Phantoms! Okay, so Maybe I finally sourced real green phantoms...
I picked up 6 wild-caught phantoms to add to my 2 subviridis. Granted, the subviridis may be reclassified as a different genus in the future. It's been a week and a day since I added them to my tank, a bout with ich and many tank renovations, but they're now acclimated.
It was concerning at first that they wouldn't eat redily, then I had to curb-stomp ich. Now, the ich is gone and the zucchini doesnt even hit the bottom of the tank before getting jumped by these green gems. By jumped I mean eaten out of what appears to be great anger. Srsly, I dont even wear green in my apt anymore - you should see what happens to vegetables. It's scary, like a zombie movie, but not the slow zombies that are easily avoided, I mean dawn of the dead types, that run fast.
I'm going to post a few of their current tankmates up for nominal fee rehoming as I go psuedo-species only.
I'll post pics once they stop being so seclusive. Wildcaught fish are that way, but I'm sure I'll have photos soon.
