dancing poliaki



Hi all

Any body with BIV-types will know just how shy these little guys 
are. I battle to see my gorgous male poliaki at the best of times... 
Last night I took my bedsite lamp and aimed the light into the 
poliaki tank onto the fish. They imdiatly dived for cover but a few 
seconds later they were all dancing at the front of the tank and how 
stunning they are!

In a way this makes sence, why would they display there shiny 
irredescent colours when they are kept in the dark or dimly lit 
conditions like the litrature suggests? Perhaps we should be 
keeping our Chromaphyosemions very well lit.

Bye
