Title: Wanting to try shellies
Post by: mandalawi on October 26, 2015, 07:44:16 PM

 Looking to try a tank of shellies. 20g long and looking for color and character. I have never done any before and am curious what would be options? Not nec. looking for multiple pairs but if they are compatible in such a small space then maybe? Also have a 29G that could be used but i don't see much of a benefit.

 I should have thought about this more when i was at the auctions.

Check with "meow2". He usually has some nice Occies (gold and purple varieties) at a fair price.

Shellies are so fun! My favorite are occies, they always seem really grumpy and are very fussy with their shells.
