The one on the pictures is that a male? Manborg i also had problems to find the keyholes,they are not that easy to find.But luckily i found one lfs that had 2 keyholes left so i bought them for 12us$...good price Robby I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

manborg Hobbyist Posts: 142 Kudos: 125 Votes: 16 Registered: 04-Apr-2005	$12 each? or for both. Either way, I would have done the same as you and scooped 'em right up. The key to knowing their gender is in the fins. The males will be pointy and long. Do you have a picture of the two of them? How big is your tank? Is there enough room and places to hide if they are both males? My kribs did that for a while until their territory was staked out. Then for the most part they were pretty well behaved with each other.

Rob1619 Fish Addict Posts: 763 Kudos: 619 Votes: 626 Registered: 01-Sep-2004	My tank is a 75g. I have caves and rocks,plants so they can hide. I also have a krib..so far they are doing great. Hopefully the krib i got is a nice quiet type I have heard so many words about the krib killing lot of fish.I will try to take a picture of my keyholes together so you can see if its males that i got. I bought the keyholes for 12us$..for both manborg. Robby Last edited by robby1619 at 12-May-2005 00:52 I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.
