Chris came home with it at lunch today :D Saw one of these last year and hence wanted one ever since. Apparently there were quite a few oddballs in, although half the size and a little under weight so he only got this one. Oh and I named her Pippa :D

What an unusual stripe pattern!
38 tanks, 2 ponds over 4000 liters of water to keep clean and fresh.

Happy fish keeping!

8) I would be curious to see this in a year....I wonder if the stripes change. The babies I saw the other day where missing the middle stripe also but they were not that cute... :lol:

do you think you can reserve some of the other oddballs for a while? Pippa is very pretty, he did well, and it must have been a nice surprise

:D Thanks everyone

Il be keeping pictures of this little one as/when it develops. I really hope the markings don't change to much :shock: but then again she might get teased once in with the 'gang' :lol:
