Thanks! They love the plants! I've noticed the fry don't mess with the plants like the adults. They have been raised with Subwassertang and java moss and I never see them pick at it unless they are looking for food

Well I have lots of Nyererei's
they are still small tho, idk if your interested in them being so small. I'm hoping they come into color soon! I have one dominant who's bars are always showing and I can see a hint if red on him. Some are flashing yellow and alot have sheen on their dorsals

It is big, lol, and bare! Idk, probably not in the long run but I have about 70 right now altogether and the 20 's & 10 looked cramped :/ u can't see the real little guys but batch #1 are getting HUGE!
Still have about 20 to move into that tank too! Little buggers are hard to catch hahaa

Thank you! I'm getting ready to take some in on trade & I'm sending a handful to Kristian soon
she's getting my "pick of the litter" and some females, he's gorgeous I'll try to get a pic when I get home Mainly Nyererei "Ruti Island" and a few miscellaneous... A couple Kenyi & some Zebras, I stripped a female Red Zebra approximately 2 1/2 weeks ago to find they are crosses
Cobalt x Red Zebra i believe as half are orange & half are dark blue. Debating on feeding them to the turtle or tossing em in the main and what survives can live out they're days with the gang. Really wasn't expecting it, but it is what it is!EDIT: I'd like to apologize in advance if the feeding of fry to my turtle offends anyone. I feel it's a safer bet for me to raise my turtles food, in home, as opposed to buying it. I also feel its humane, the circle if life kinda deal, and hey... Everyone's gotta eat! It does suck cuz they are cute and all, but so are baby cows & I love veal
