i'll just go in chronilogical order of when i got them.
shadow:
he's doing great. he loves flaring at pacific and the two of them have their own little "flare offs". he's building huge bubble nests - i cant wait to find him a little girl. i also got him a new little purple dragon he loves to hide behind. he's not nearly as shy as he was when i got him, but swims forward to "challenge" pacific through their tanks. its so funny to watch. he loves playing peek-a-boo, too.
^peek-a-boo!^
pacific:
still the little show off. i can't get a picture of him not flaring, as anytime he sees the camera, he's as big as he can get, swimming around to look as flashy as he can. my 20 gallon's in the midst of "hermie cleaning" so that can become my breeding tank - he's got a little girlfriend now
. i can't wait to breed them and see what their babies look like.
aladdin:
his tail is growing in soooooo nicely. i'm excited for this boy, too. i just might have to breed him to my little CT girl after pacific. i haven't decided about that yet. here's some before-and-now pictures.
^when i got him^
^now^
you can really see how much his tail's growing in. (the first doesn't have the flash on, the second does. the second shows his true colors more.)
dolce:
she's the "queen of the girls". she keeps everyone in line, a little nip when it's needed. otherwise, all the girls are getting along great. she swims up to see me anytime i walk by, swimming up and down and following my finger. she's a little sweetie.
cadence:
my little, little girl. she's in a temporary breeding trap in my 10 gallon as dolce was constantly picking on her. i'm debating on leaving her in there as she's so much more active than she was in the other tank. she comes up to see me and swims around happily. i let her out into the 10 gallon for a while and she didn't move around alot. i'm not sure if she's afraid of the other fish or if she doesn't like big spaces. she's quite small. if she gets bolder, she's gonna be pacific (and maybe aladdin's) girl.
vivace and melody:
i've only had these girls a few days so there's not much to say to each other other than they get along great with each other and with dolce. i've been keeping an eye on them and everyone seems happy. i grouped these two together because i got them the same day and they look alot alike. in reality, vivace is a solid red with some green scales throughout her body while melody is more of a light red/pink/white body - it's hard to tell which - with red fins. melody's a bit smaller than vivace as well.
