My new Festae and Umbee's
Just thought that I would share a couple pics of a couple new additions, a male Festae, & 4 Umbee's. Anyone with a little female Festae out there, let me know. This guy is about 6". The Umbee's range from 3" to 5".

other than the spot, how can you tell? Cause his spot is definitely off center.

You know, I think your right. I put one of my female Uro's in with him and so far so good. I guess I will just have to wait and see.

Festae????
madness,
the fish in question is 100% Uro/Mayan. the smaller fish rattle referenced is certainly Festae. to the untrained eye its hard to tell the difference. i have been addicted to Festae since 1978, for me the difference between the 2 is like night and day. even though there are similarities, the 2 species are not identical especially at maturity.

Re: My new Festae and Umbee's
Oh I know. I have come to the conclusion to except it. I have 2 female Uro's so getting a male was not that bad of news. But for what I paid for him, which wasn't much, I thought I was getting a screamin deal on a male Festae. OK though, I accept it.
