Those Festae are looking pretty incredible for that age - hopefully they stay ahead the the Midas, which are looking pretty good - especially the one with some black in him

Thank you for the kind words, they’re maybe 2” total length. Super lucky lfs pick up at only $9 each. The Midas babies will be moving along sooner than later. Lfs would only take 20 at a time, so I kept the best ones to grow on a bit.

Love them festae, wonder if having the Midas in with them are making then color up like they are. Those 2 are looking female already with the black dorsal, pelvic fins.

Large festae is male, smaller one female. Of course I have no idea, just an educated guess for funsies. I'm going off of head shape, not fins. Nice grab from the LFS.
