Yes I was quite shocked when I brought an ice cream bucket to the till, weighed it and was asked for $80

How well do Banggai's do in pairs? are they peacefull, or do they need to be added together? ie, could we get another one?

Bangaiis, unlike Pajamas do well alone. Once they reach maturity they won't put up with any other Cardinals unless they find a mate. Then they will usually breed and breed and breed. The male holds the eggs in his mouth for 5 weeks and doesn't eat. When he releases them the female is often ready to breed within a week, at which point it goes round n round. This sounds great, but for the 5 weeks that the male doesn't eat he's losing weight, and getting skinnier. If he does batch after batch he will often starve himself to death. So, for that reason it is best to just keep Bangaiis singly, or buy a pair like mine where the male eats the eggs instead of carrying them.
