Re: [GSAS-Member] Freshwater flounders



Hey Scott,

I also saw these at The Fish Store and was intrigued by their odd shape.

How big are yours after a year??  They are such funny-looking little fish, 
it is hard to resist the temptation to try one or two.

Cheers,
Connie

I know the fish you are talking about and have kept them exclusively in 
fresh water for over a year.  They are great fish and quickly becoming a 
fish I can't ever see not having in my 150G community tank.
