Good lord! It's 12 weeks already? I feel like I just posted an update yesterday..... that was 8 days ago! Time is certainly flying by.

Anyway, nothing spectacular to report. These guys are doin great! Growth amongst the group is pretty much equal. One of them is a bit smaller than the rest. I'm assuming that's going to be my breeding female. :D

Water parameters have changed a bit. I am raising the TDS in to the 300 range to adjust my RO demand. No other real reason. Still performing the one 60 to 80% water change weekly. Same, same.

Anyway, enjoy the glamor shots! :p

Best wishes!

Thanks Eddie. Know that I know how to work the camera.... Yeah, I'm a bit slow at times. Thanks for the kind words and, again, the help with camera settings! :D

I really appreciate the compliments Bill! I have to admit, it's nice to sit in the living room with all the lights out and watch this crew. They are still super energetic and are very entertaining.

Best wishes!

They look great:thumbsup:. Wish I had that green thumb to maintain a planted tank. I kill both in water and out of water plants, lol.:)

Thanks! Trust me, i'm always learning something new about planted tanks. Once you get some of the basics down, they are really easy to deal with. They are a bit more work, but I enjoy the challenge!

Best wishes!
