i just got my first online order this morning. the fuzzy dwarf i received was already over 2 inches long, looked the picture of health, and already follows me around the glass. i was impressed at how fast he/she acclimated and felt comfortable. very good specimen and i am truly impressed.

This fish is a good fish if you have the extra time to get him off live fish. He should eat frozen foods and not live shrimp or feeders. Still overall a great fish!
