I agree with Graeme.
That is a very nice mix of healthy gastros.
I see ctenocephalus, stellatus and ocellatus...the usual mix.
I think you better take some of each home and save some for Graeme. ;)

They're so cute bundled together like that. Just out of shot on the right is a powerhead, so they had positioned themselves in prime position in the flow. :D

Oh wow! I've never seen such a mixed bag and they all look to be really nice.

I really want more ocellatus. They're such beautiful fish.

I was in my favorite lfs last week and they only had two left out of the very nice gastro shipment that came in about two or three weeks ago. They only lost one fish. They sold the rest (including three to me) and had only one ocellatus and one cteno left this past week. The cteno was sold while I was there and I just couldn't stop checking out that lone ocellatus.I have a feeling he may be coming home with me if stays there much longer. I am so weak.
