Got my African Butterfly Fish!

[1865]

Males are larger but this is new and I obviously can't see it in person

Sure you can! Leave New Hampshire heading South. When you get to about.... South Carolina, turn right. After a bit more driving you'll hit Dallas. Just ask around, we're friendly down here and someone will point you towards me. you can take a look at Papillon(Thanks lquinsey, I love it!). I'll treat you to some Texas Barbeque, then you can head home. Easy as pie.

Just saw Silence of the Lambs not long ago so I was thinking maybe Hannibal would be an appropriate name.

Well, it would be french for butterfly if it didn't have the second 'i'. It's just papillon

hehehe...my mistake. Papillon is indeed the correct spelling.

1865 - Haha, I could use a vacation! And I love road trips. 'Course, I would have liked to be in Texas tonight for the Rangers/Sox game since we actually didn't stink and won! At any rate, thanks for the Southern Hospitality

Marinelli - Good name If I ever have a big mean cichlid, I will use that name.

And Winter, no troubles. That french minor has to come in handy for something, right?

Hmm, what about... "anonymous". You can call him Nony for short!

Sorry, but when I first saw them, they reminded me of a gigantic roach floating in the tank!

 

[Emg]

LOL F8.....I too thought they were something from outerspace or something...odd looking fish...but the more I read about them, the more interested I am in getting one some day.

I wonder how well they would get along with a betta....

you can take a look at Papillon(Thanks lquinsey, I love it!).

You are most welcome. Awesome fish.

I would name him Chuck Lidell.

ABFs are awesome fish! Mine reminds me of a dragon everytime I feed him, cuz of the way he swims
