Thanks, guys! I was hooked a few months ago, when I first saw a picture. They really are gorgeous creatures, and my photo doesn't do the colors any kind of justice.

 

[rachiavelli]

man, you are doing awesome with your tank. and your ricordeas that you picked up yourself, those are sweet.

 

[Steveabg]

Yes! My awesome girlfriend bought them for me. (Thanks, Rachel).

[cplklegg]

The purple looks sweet.

 

[Steveabg]

Thanks! We got a great deal on them from fraggle reef. We bought four, but two of them have two mouths!

i wish my girlfriend would buy me rics, she absolutely hates the tank since i spend so much time on it lol, i love any rics with a neon mouth. yours are real nice, i bet you cant wait for the whole rock to be filled with them. tie some fishing line right down the center once they get settled in and they will split in a couple of weeks. works every time for my rics!

 

[Steveabg]

You've gotta get her involved! Then it's a collaborative art project. Women eat that kind of stuff up.

Re: the fishing line trick, do you mean tying it down the center over the mouth, or down the center between the ones with two mouths? That sounds pretty easy, and a nice, gentle way to propagate them.

 

[SAPseven]

rubber banding them is even easier

Nice looking rics Direct feeding them will make them split for you.
