Regular Member Shamu23 Posted June 24, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted June 24, 2008 I was at 1 of my fave petstores today to get a new betta and some koi food when I noticed a little choco pompom oranda that had been in that same tank for as long as I could remember. So I begged my mom and eventually she gave in so I brought the little guy home. His one pompom is kinda damaged and has lots of extra orange pieces but he's still adorable! He'll go in the 29 gallon, I know it'll b overstocked but i'll get them a better filter soon, and my albino BN pleco, Mr. Pleco will go in the 125 gallon once he gets bigger. I named the little guy Brownie, and my new crowntail betta (they had barely any bettas left) is named Ciro. He loves digging in his sand lol. Here's some pics of them. and 2 bad pics of Prickly in the 46 g (i'll get some of Mr. Pleco soon) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member SwimmingGoldie Posted June 24, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) Well purple is very attractive. Purple is kind of an uncommon color around Duluth. We just have teal and red. Edited June 24, 2008 by SwimmingGoldie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Shamu23 Posted June 27, 2008 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 27, 2008 lol i guess so, i actually didnt realize he was purple until after i got him, same with my female lol Brownie has gotten alot more tame now he used to sit on the bottom under his plant every time he saw movement but now he'll come beg for food every time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member littlepeanut Posted June 27, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted June 27, 2008 They are both very nice fish, and in the third and fourth picture I see that the cat is thinking the same thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
