TexOscar1 Gambusia MFK Member Jul 24, 2014 250 5 18 Texas Dec 9, 2015 #4 I will take a pic and see what yall think.

YankeeJack Blue Tier VIP MFK Member Mar 3, 2013 795 868 430 USA Dec 10, 2015 #7 blue tint starts around 6-8 weeks. Reactions: TexOscar1
TexOscar1 Gambusia MFK Member Jul 24, 2014 250 5 18 Texas Dec 10, 2015 #8 Probably need to seperate them before then though, mine are about 3-4 weeks old at the moment. Still trying to get a clearer picture but where the tank sits, it is cause some glare.

TexOscar1 Gambusia MFK Member Jul 24, 2014 250 5 18 Texas Dec 12, 2015 #10 I would too, if I could see a milky base color. I really don't see any but some are like a silver color and shiny?
