Tightest Schooling Fish

[rspcain]

I have rummies in a 120 and they school at the bottom very nice.

In another 120 I have rainbows but also 6 "Debauwi Cats" and they are always together except at feeding. They are similar to the glass cat but have stripes which gives reason for there other common name "three striped glass cat".

Here is a link to what they look like:

I got my Debauwi Cats in Rockford, Il at Petland. They carry all the time.

I have also seen in Chicago area at the store associated with Petland called Aquarium Adventure.

I have 5 black skirts in a 55 and they school just about all the time. Never read this here, wondering if anyone else have any. Maybe they are just scared of me looking at them haha

If there isn't a threat to the school, they'll go wherever they want. Add a predator and any schoolers will bunch up.. Safety in numbers, and all that.
