Oh you can't post something like that and not post a picture. I think that's grounds for a warning mister. Correct this travesty at once!

Working on a pic but hes still a little skiddish and not showing his face too much right now. looks like a six line only the stripes instead of being red and blue on the sixline, his stripes are indigo, pink and yellow. they colors are very pastel looking. they color around the eyes is orange gold. tail is still greenish like a sixline. to sum up its color a little better . GOLDISH WITH INDIGO STRIPES.

WILL ADD PICS WHEN THE FISH LETS ME !!!!!

tried to find it in the books at the store wasnt in any of them which leads to to believe what i was told to be true. upon closr inspection looks very simular to a mystery in color but a sixline in patter. eyes are an incredible orange gold color.

Still working on pic but i can oly sit infront of a tank with a camera in hand for so long.

Added 3 Bumble Bee Snails yesterday. Budget Updated.


Also wondering if i can remove my turbo snail and recover that little part of the budget? it has been my plan from the get go to have these BB snails and the only reason i added the turbo was i had a algae out break that is now just barely coming under control.

Yes... it's alive... you could sell it or put it in another tank so I don't see why wouldn't you be able too?

This would mean that we could take out and replace stock anytime we wanted?

Sure why not? It happens in non contest life all the time? As long as it's not some kinda in and out scam that doesn't simulate real life at all... and people will know and then I'm sure they'll have some words for you, but otherwise I don't see why not??

I mean you could "take something out" when it really died but that's not being honest... just use your best judgment. I think you can generally tell what's acceptable.

What if my other tank crashes and I quickly have to throw a fish few fish in my nano for a few days while I get things sorted out and they die... do I have to deduct them from my budget?? We can simulate a thousand scenarios but I think you just to the best you can to be honest and fair
