Yep! I was checkin out that link u sent Eddie, and its truly a blue Acara, they are all over in the drains at the back of my house and in all the rivers in this country together with the Guppy wich originally came from here. there is another darker blue Acara, i will go catch one of those in the river and take some pics of them at the river itself.

What do u mean by Endlers?As i was taking the video they were fighting each other. I thought they were a pair. By the way the bigger one is 4 inches.

OH! Yea!, I will do a video tommorow at the front of my house in the drain and scoop up some . They are all different colors, the only thing is their tails are not big like the highbreds

dude if i live where you live i would never buy fishes, i'd just hop out back and scoop up some, to bad i can't do it here in Minnesota, the streams and small rivers has a load of nice looking natives, but if the dnr see me doing that without a permit i'll get fined.

Nope u would not like to live here, we cant even get a good heater to buy down here, not even good Discus. The most colorfull fish we have in the rivers are the guppies and then the blue acara comes in second. What is the dnr?

A permit can't be too much can it? I don't think they're very strict about enforcement, but the license for the year is like $15 in OH (actual price may vary, but not too far off).
