New fish! (rainbows & betta)

It just shocked me that he didn't even make an attempt to save him. I felt like saying "Buddy, do you know how long I have been looking for these fish??" :angryfire:
So far so good, I think he is going to make it!
I can't tell you how shocked I was to see Threadfins there! Its no wonder I drive 40 minutes to go to that one when I have a Petco less than 10 minutes away.
What other fish do you have with them? I am probably going to have a species only tank, but I am curious. The males are already displaying to the females...its quite fun to watch! :grinyes:
Thanks...it made going back to work today much easier!
Thanks! I just couldn't leave him there! I wish the camera picked up on the green shimmer he has on his fins...the 2nd picture doesn't do him justice. If breeding bettas didn't seem so difficult, I would be tempted to get some babies out of him.

Very cool fish
I always thought these where very cool fish and finally seen some in person a week ago and the fish store down the road.
These fish are listed as aggressive though from what I have read about them, So I'm not sure I will be able to keep them with my peaceful fish?

Threadfin rainbows? I always heard the opposite...a quick search gave me their profile from Practical Fishkeeping:
Notes: These fish are one of the most peaceful community fish around and although small look fantastic in large, graceful shoals. Threadfin Rainbows are succeptible to fin-nippers and so should be kept with other peaceful community species.
They are hanging out with my molly in QT, so I'm sure they are fine with other fish.

That's good to know, Now I can get me some when my 75 gets set up. Thanks for the correction, I guess it was only one site that had them labeled aggressive.
