I wasn't criticising. I'm sorry but it's hard to convey tone over the net. I was just pointing out that he does seem to know everything, and that I was wrong. seriously, I wasn't trying to offend.

Guess that rules them out then. This is my last try. If this isn't suitable I'll lay downa and admit defeat. "The Celebes Rainbow is a schooling fish that should be kept with other peaceful fish. The colorful males have an extended second dorsal and anal fin. Natural lighting intensifies their ...

Okay I'm ordering more shrimps from that site (Replacing the singapore flower shrimp, getting a few more ghosts, and some more cherry red shrimps) and I'm thinking I want a fish that can live peacefully with my shrimps, live in the 3rd or 2nd level (above the ground) and can live in the same paramet...

Luckily the place I got them from will reimburse me for any losses in the first 2 weeks, so I will get the money back for the 2 I lost.
