Thank you for your reply, Helene.
Bernd has indeed answered me and I am already trying to arrange transport to Hamburg in the near future.
He indeed told me that the ornaticauda is not the best choice for a starter.
I am indeed a beginner with Paro’s although I have kept and bred many different fish in the past.
Bernd has advised me to go for the allani and as you people here are the experts I am following this advice.
My tank is up and running, so I hope to have everything arranged in the coming 1 or 2 months.
Hamburg is quite the trip, around 3,5 hours by car, but for this beautiful species I am willing to make that trip. My brother has offered to drive me, we’ll make a day out of it 🙂
Kind regards,
Benjamin
