I have a neon yellow/green one that has encrusted onto the glass. You can see it on the floor of the tank in this pic. I'll have to get a closeup tonight...

Thanks! I'm still on the hunt for a nice red with yellow centers one :bigsmile: Keep an eye out for me Richard!

OK, here's a closeup. It's really hard to photograph, due to the "neon-ness" off it.

Those are both pretty cool. Goniporas, are the also called flowerpot? Do you think that they would morph if a yellow one was right up against a red one?

What kind of bangai that one is?

You're welcome. Probably thee most underrated carinal fish, IMO, as they have more color than most other species, and have no problem hanging in my Grand Central Station type tank :wink:

I get this color combination in rather often and they have always done well and grown well for me. When I frag them they heal fast and continue to grow. Ill see if I can find some photos.
