Veilfinned Neons??

[Misty]

I subscribe to Fish International and they had a cover story, an issue back I think, about these little guys.
I'm a big fan of Neons and I want some of these. Has anybody seen any around?

I haven't heard of it...but here is an interesting article

interesting. My mom would love them. I have never seen or heard of them though, and I bet they aren't cheap. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you supersmirky.
I had already read that after I read the article in the mag...

I would imagine they still aren't going to be cheap but I'm almost to the point of being able to switch the Rams to the 100g so I think I'll wait on the veilfins anyway. Not that I really have a choice as they're very few and far between right now, lol.

Thank you both for replying.:)

I like them.

Does anyone have a source for them?

[Misty]

I wish I did Andrew!
Like some of the opinions at the link you shared, I don't think an entire school of them would be as visually appealing as a few added into a school of regular neons. Sort of like catching a glimpse of something unsuspected.

I'm thinking a school of 10-15 (depending on their adult size) in my 33 would be nice :D

Funny thing this has come up. It's the cover story in my new Aquarium Fish Magazine this month!
