18 Day Old Danio

[nic1]

I had a shock surprise in my tank 18 days ago, my first batch of danio fry!
Now they are older I can see that half of them are pink!
I only have one glofish the rest are normal zebra danio, they are so pretty, and I am shocked at their colours.
I have just bought an even bigger net to grow them in so will update with pictures as they get bigger

Nic, your profile information says that you are in the UK. Is that right? The reason I ask is that Glofish(R) are illegal in the UK.

Hi, yes. I'm in the UK.... ERM, well I saw them on Gumtree one day, there were 3 of them but two quickly died and one remained.
I know they are illegal but I jumped at them when I saw that someone was giving them away.... they were in a sorry state but one flourished in my tank and now I have offspring...
What are the consequences of someone owning them in the UK?

I really don't know, lol. It's probably more a case of that it's illegal to import them, which you didn't. But I guess if anyone did ever pick you up on it, you wouild have to show them some sort of documentary evidence that you bought them within the UK.

Oooh! Well no money exchanged hands and the lone survivor is much healthier now shes in my care

Wow! Amazing! And don't worry, just don't ever release it or sell it for profit. 
But that is so amazing! Cool!

Thanks, and nah I couldn't let these go, they are too cute!

Make sure you add some photo updates every once in a while. Can never have to many photos!

 

[nic1]

I will
I can't believe how fast they grow, I'm finding new ones in the tank everyday and the size difference is enormous!
