Need fish ID help.

rlf_racing · 03/17/2008, 12:27 AM

I picked these two guys up yesterday from aquarium adventure. They were labeled as target fish but I know that is not correct. Since I can't find any info on them, I can only take a guess of what they are. Here is the best pic of them.

I have gone thru a lot of differnt websites trying to find a similar picture. And this is the only one I came across at live aquaria. So any help would be great.
Thanks

Only description I see of a "Target Fish" that has a photo... looks pretty much spot on.

No not a reef tank. Just only a FOWLR setup. FBNitro and swsmr thanks for clarifying that it is a target fish, I searched for a couple hours last night and couldn't find anything about them. So again thank you.

You should never buy fish without knowing exactly what they are before you get them. I research everything out prior to make sure of compatability.

rlf_racing · 03/17/2008, 11:44 PM

Afish70 yeah some of them are looking better. Heck I am thinking of getting a part time job out there. I made small mistake of doing an impulse buy. Everybody does it.

Hey, did you guys happen to see any royal grammas at the Aquarium Adventure in Bolingbrook? When ever i go there they don't have any in stock.

joelrod72 · 03/18/2008, 10:48 AM

how much did u pay for it?

rlf_racing · 03/18/2008, 11:29 PM

I payed 12 bucks for the pair and thinking getting a couple more to make them more comfortable. Talk to Joshua about what you are looking for. He is in charge of ordering.

If you are a club member you get 25% off all their livestock. Most of saltwater selection is pretty close to the other lfs I go to. But I haven't tried buying any real exspensive fish either.
