    I have 6 Rainbow fish (Melanotaenia australis) for sale, 3 males & 3 females. They are in excellent health. They love it when I give them live food, but they are not fussy eaters. They are very active and will need to be housed in a 1.2m tank at minimum. R200 for the group.

    They are about 6-7.5cm in size. What size tank does your brother-in-law have and what does he keep in there?

    Morning. Thanks for the reply. He has a 1.2m tank tanks been running for the last 2 weeks. He had to "rebuilt" the tank as the tank leaked and messed up his cupboard. He has 2 Boesmani rainbows and 8 small platties. Thats about that. Llots of plants but no other fish.

    The Cories are all well. Maybe advertise some of the Endlers here as well. What do you want to swop them for? Will keep an ear open if there is somebody looking for some. Let me know about the Rainbows.

    Hi. My peppered cories are doing well but no babies yet. I bought 4 albino cories a while back and they are very busy. Swimming all over the place. I need plants that grow tall for my big tank and some plants that don't need much light for my smaller breeding tanks. Will swap some Endler guppies for plants or nice community fish. Maybe keep a few and sell the rest as i want to use the tank for something else.

    Morning. I haven't thought about a price yet. Maybe R5 each - give or take. Some are small but they are hardy. The small males have just started to show their color.

    How do I attach pictures? The "insert image" icon keeps asking me for a url.

    Hi. Family members just makes me mad. He wants it, but cant get him to come and have a look. I will even take it if someone will take over all my Endler guppies (way over a hundred) as I don't have a spare tank. Will go by him again this afternoon again.

    The Rainbows are still available. Make me a reasonable offer. I also have 9 youngsters of various sizes available.
