The lovely Congicus

[Polyaddict86]

I was sad to find it dead and dried out on the floor.
It jupmped through a hole in the lid that i was sure it could not fit through. I could see lots of slime around the hole so it must have struggled to escape.
In order to manage my grief i went out to buy the last 2 Congis in the store. Plus a Arowana Jardini.

Sorry to hear your loss, **** happens to everyone.

Here are a few more pics of the it before it jumped the tank.
It went through a hole that i could never imagine it would fit in.

I love the color of your congi, pattern is more visible, my congi sometimes is grey and sometimes its pale and markings are not bold as yours.

Thanks. This very red gravel probably does a lot to the colors

Beautiful Congi mate. In the UK it seems hard to source Congi like this, only ones we had here in years were mass farmed in a small gene pool. They arrived with bulging eyes, deformed finlets, round heads and most of them had little to no markings, even on dark substrates.
Grew relatively quick though, doubled in size in only a few months, has really slowed around 13 inch now.
