I'm confused - what happened to your malawians???

Great pics anyway, especially the neons!

I know I'd be scared if I was shipped in a small box across the contiguous U.S., then plunked into unknown quarters.

Theres a 4-5inch red tailed shark in there... That's resonably scarey.

Like most tetras, neons school when they are scared. I think you already knew that

Great fishes! How long were they in that box? Did all of them survive? I'm planning to get some fishes that is very hard to get from finland so maybe I can just order them from the other side of the world...

JB:
I've got the yellows in my 30g with the rocks from the 55.

CUP:
Thanks

Alex:
It's a tricky thing... sometimes they do... sometimes they don't. Having a lot of them seems to help... like if you have 6 they'll school... and if you have 15+ they'll school... anything inbetween can be kinda spread out looking...

Here are some general pics of my redone 55g. The tank still looks a bit stark, but I have 4 amazon swords and 4 java ferns coming so I hope they'll fill everything out.


In the box...


I see the light!... It burns!!!


There seems be an invisible barrier preventing me from entering!


Drip... Drip... Drip...


YoYos in the bucket.


Rummies and Neons in the bucket.

Do you think they can see us?


C'mon everyone! Follow me!!! ...... erm... guys?[/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font]

Very nice pics.

I also love your Yo yo's. In my experience Neons take quite a while to settle into a new tank.
