for those that have dario's growing on this is what you'll end up with.
my matey Neil got these in some i'm sure were bigger but i went for the fish i liked the best.
a rough size is taken on the tape measure on the show tank, these tanks are 6 inches long.

Nice fish Mick, has Neil just got these in?

mickthefish · Post by **mickthefish** » Sun Mar 08, 2009 5:49 pm

no mate i've had them a while now, but i've asked if he will get some of this size in the next Indian shipment which is due near to the convention.
so it's in the lap of the gods if they come over.
i know his thai shipment will be in, in about ten days, Neils gonna give us a bell the day it comes in so i can see what he has.
i know one of the fish coming over it's some BIG modesta's, like 8 inches big mate.

sweet dario!!!!
better looking than mine
and larger to boot!

thanks everyone, they are a sight when the six of them come out of hiding.
i wish they were all fin perfect but as Emma knows all of a sudden all hell breaks loose with them, and they just attack each other which causes fin damage and a few slash marks on their flanks.
