I recenty purchased three of the above, Latin name Apogon leptacanthus. I can find little info on them and have tried a search on the web but little info was found. They are to be seen in Scott W Michaels excellent book called "Marine fishes"

These are timid fish and I would say you definatley require a group of 5 or more as per Scot's book. I have three but will be going back to the LFS for another 2 or 3. If anybody is, or has kept these fish or indeed knows much about them then please reply. Cheers Les.

Les,

Well you could rectify the mistake by posting a picture of the fish in question http://www.ultimatereef.com/ibv3/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Hi Lisa, I have tried taking a pic or two but the little &^%$£"* aren't playng ball yet. They are very shy so far and I don't see so much of em until feed times. Will keep trying. http://www.ultimatereef.net/ibv3/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif Also not so good a posting pic's as I have never tried it so will have to get somebody to do it for me.:rolleyes: Now where is that boy Will? http://www.ultimatereef.net/ibv3/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif Les
