      What other species does your brother keep?

      He kept and bred cockatiels last year. He got rid of them all and wanted to bring in another small parrot species, possibly blue-throated conures. He has done nothing yet though.

      He also has 2 chocolate catfish (latin name unknown), 4 rummy-nosed tetras, 6 lemon tetras and 2 clown loach. The loaches used to fight but they've settled down now. He is waiting to get a cory species, and a characin which will swin in mid-water or nearer to the surface.

      In the past he has bred moustached parrakeets, cockatiels, budgerigars, lutino peach-faced lovebirds, dwarf ram cichlids and long-finned barbs.

      This bird has now been surgically sexed and is a male.
