Hi,

here are some pics of my lucia group. i have eight of them in a well planted 160 cm long tank (350 L) . They were bred by a friend in switzerland, and by now are eigth cm in length. On the pics they feed on frozen white mosquito larvae. but they like frozen shrimp and lancefish,too.

Gorgeous!
Have seen some of these (a little bigger) in my LFS, and was thinking of getting them.

What's the growth rate like on these Brucki?

Hi Tokio,

they grow very slow, like P. obscura. The behaviour reminds me also on obsura.

Cheers

as I said, they grow slowly, but they grow ;-)

Here are some new pics. Du eto the shyness of this species, I had to use flashlight, so the pics arent that good.
