[DAVIDFBT]

That's a cool little setup, what's the SG of the water?

 

[Mokomon]

The SG is 1.010

Thanks guys for the kind comments!

I literally threw the set-up together in 1 hr because I was so anxious to get back to the store to bring them home. :lipssealedsmilie:

 

[Mokomon]

So what kind of muddskipper are they?Don't they require a brackish setup?

They are Indian skippers, & yes, I do have a brackish set-up.
I "try" to do my research before I bring anything home

But aren't we all just highly derived fish ourselves. Nice looking tank.

Cladistically, yes. Can't help thinking that I prefer to work with a slightly inaccurate polyphyletic "fish" group than have to think of all higher vertebrates as fish though. Because when it comes down to it, why stop at fish? They're just derived from primitive chordates, which themselves have a wormy ancestor of some kind, so we're just highly derived worms. Or sponges. Or protists...

I believe he said "get that camera out of my face, woman"
