Monster Color

I thought I had at least 2 females of these little guys. Well, apparently something about moving back home for winter break made one of the "females" switch gender. It's now the most colorful and aggressive male in the tank!

They're very curious little things

the former dominant male. He's not too happy about the new competition

Here's the one that appeared to be a female, until a few weeks ago

full flare

are they accepting anything other than live food, as i have seen one of my friends got them onto tetra bits, but he is one of the craziest native keepers here.

They take frozen bloodworms. One of them seemed to be interested in Hikari micro-pellets, but spit it out. Hopefully I'll be able to train them on to other foods. These are definitely one of my favorite fish out of India.
