I was in Petsmart today and picking up some Stability for my new tank while waiting for my mom's Dr.s appointment when I saw Puntius Denisoni! I couldn't believe they had them, then I was wondering, what on earth is Petsmart doing with these?!? I asked how often they got them, and the lady responded with that was the first time, and that they had gotten any, there were more, but they had all been eaten before anyone had thought to put them in a different tank where the other fish weren't way bigger than them. They had 3 left and I have been looking for these for over a year and a half and had given up all hope!

I debated on not buying them, cause my tank is already pretty full, but then figured, when am I ever going to see these again?? Never, probably, and definitely not for $6.99 each! So now, I have 3 of these beautiful Indian fish and a great reason to start up my 46 gallon bowfront again (To relocate some of the fish in the 75 gallon. I'll probably move the Pristella Tetras and some others in there....) So without further ado, here's a short video of my Puntius Denisoni along with the other fish in my 75 Gallon and a ghost shrimp!

I'm hoping to eventually find some more Roseline Barbs, but until then, they seem to not mind schooling with the Scissortail Rasboras.

Well we need pictures.

I'll try to get some soon, they are still zooming around the tank! I'll have to get out my DSLR camera to get stills of these guys. The "View my video" link does take you to a vid of these guys though!

Wow, just looked those guys up on google, very cool looking fish!!

I just realized I left the DSLR camera at work, so I had to use the photo function on the video camera. Sorry for the quality of the pics:









They look much more AWESOME in real life!

I almost bought some of these a while back. Found them for $15 ea. Awesome fish! Went back to get them and they were gone.

Very nice looking fish. Congratz

Deworm them! I made the mistake of buying fish from either Petco or Petsmart and didn't quarantine them and now my whole tank needs treated :( And I've lost 1 fish so far, didn't know what was wrong with it till it was to late.
