| Hi there, just new to the site... Anyone have longfin marble bn? Here in Melbourne, Australia, they are extremely rare. I managed to find 11 at an aquarium and grabbed them all! Am now broke, but happy lol They are around 4cm body length so will be a while until i can breed, but i can wait... sort of lol Photos arent great, one is from still in their purchase bag, the others are a couple hours into their new tank. Much more orange than the photos show  Would love to see others long finned marble bn.... ~Nina~    |

| I think in the UK we refer to them as 'calico' and the gold marble are the LD08's.
Correct me if I am wrong.
Still nice BN's though, I would certainly like some! |
