Ask and ye shall receive!

When I get home from work, I'll record the video.

So far the Boesmanis are the most active fish. They love zipping from one end of the aquarium to the other thumbs2:

Congrats! Just wait 'til the colors fully develop on the males - you can already see the early stages in your picture. thumbs2:

I sure did -- it was fun to see!

You've done a nice job with all the plants in this tank, too.

[Ritchie]

Thank you Rivers!!

Nice video.

Have you noticed how the Boesmani rainbows always snatch food at the surface and then dive straight back down? I've had mine for a year now and I have never seen one linger near the surface for even a second. I figure there must be really active bird predation where they are from.

[Boundava]

That's a neat observation.

What do you feed your fry for the first two months? Will they eat frozen BBS or only live BBS?
