I have eight of them now.  All juveniles.  Waiting for them to grow to see if I keep them all or not.  I want 1-2 males and 3-4 females.

Not sure what happened, but we are down to 6 of them.  They are doing real good and showing descent color already!

Need to upgrade the lighting on the tank.

They are growing well.

The dominant male is about 2-3" and showing a lot of blue.  Very happy with that.  I thought we would still have another 6 months before seeing anything.

Good to hear Ken.  I just sent some phenos to MN today and they were showing some nice color around 2 inches.

I have a group of 20 in a 125 gallon.  All males are 8"+.  Females are around 5"+.  I have 1.5" fry sale.
