Ok,
well i got these little guys at the LFS.. all 3 of them for $29.99 .. i think thats a good deal... anyway i'll be looking out for aggresion in the next few weeks... and in a month or two they will go into my 30g. cube w/ a Haddoni {sp}.....
anyway i thought they were Sebae but i wasnt sure so can someone give me a positive ID.. (srry for the quality of the pics... im not a very good photographer)

They definately look like clarkii to me. Very Very good looking specimens. Nice find.

A. clarki, very nice little group. They should take to your haddoni very well.
As you already know, it is very likely that 2 of the fish will start to gang-up on the third.

thanks alot guys!!!ya.. im aware of that^.. these guys came right off the truck and so i took them directly from the shipment box..
i.e. they never touched the LFS's water....and werent acclimated to there tanks...
they were all in the same bag.... i have 2 other tanks i could seperate one into.. so im not worried...
i'll be looking closely for agression though..
thanks guys for the ID

They really are great fish. I think someone here has been looking for a melanistic clarkii for some time. They aren't that common, one of my LFS had one about 3/4-1" long but he had full blown brook when I saw him 3 hours out of the bag...

[ezhoops]
