Re: [GSAS-Member] Galaxy rasbora??

All I know is that I showed them to the hubby, and I know what I'm  
getting for my birthday. ;]

Of course, I'll have to research them carefully before we acquire  
them. I like for my fish to come from reputable and ecology conscious  
sources if I have a choice about it. I would love to know more about  
them, and I don't mind all the extra discussion on them. If someone  
has more definitive information about their origins, how they are  
collected, and anything else... I would love to read more about them.
