Cant really see the parents. Fry look healthy and active.

I guess you are aiming to get a fish similar to your avatar :D

Good Luck!

Get little man started on the WC right away! Use buckets so he can make a workout out of it! :)

LOL, he panics. His words "OH NO, THEY CAN'T SWIM, THERE'S NO WATER!"

He's getting used to it. :)

How long before HE can do the water change? Isn't one of the main reasons for having children slave labor? :P

Good luck Eddie. If you can get some fish looking like your old crosses, you're going to have some really nice looking fish. I can't wait to see.

He looks pretty happy even in the bag. I guess he knows he came to a good home :D
