Call the Cops

lbretz · 04-29-2007, 09:11 PM

I just robbed the my lfs. They gave me:

2 Redline Barbs
http://www.picable.com/Nature/Fish/A...ine-Barb.23399

and 4 Blackline Penguin Fish
http://www.picable.com/Nature/Fish/A...uin-Fish.23400

all for $10.:biggrin: I know the barbs go for at least $20 each, but I'm not for sure what the penguin fish go for. Does anyone know?

Never seen those fish before, weird. Cops are on their way I guess.

Congrats, apparently someone at the lfs don't know their fish.

Yeah..those redliners or (denisons) are selling at a local shop for $30 each...(Adults)

Be careful though, you might have gotten Puntius chalakudiensis instead of Puntius Denisonii

These fish look very similar, but as they grow, the "imposter" doesn't get the coloration that the denisonii gets. Do some research on those babies

Penguins should be $2-$3

Those Redline fish look like some kind of Tetra. Why are they so expensive?
