You could give them a buzz and see if they have one...btw they have two shops, their other one may be in your area if the Parramatta one isn't near you. All the best for your search. ~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~ |

Whiptails are usually flatter in body shape than the Farlowella-type fish. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian. |

| jase101 Big Fish Posts: 345 Kudos: 273 Votes: 1 Registered: 06-Jul-2004 | but here in the antipodes, nobody uses the name farlowella!! i'd say every shop i've ever seen them is has them labelled as whiptails... |
