Let me see your pouty face.

All from those two fat and sassy girls who keep mugging for the camera, since they arrived in late August.
The boys have been getting separated out into another tank. Accounting for only 7 of the babies so far, but the second oldest batch of fry are only starting to differentiate themselves now. Some video of them to come.

I know livebearers are really really good at producing more little fishies, but I still keep getting impressed 🙄
And they can keep it up for like 6 months after a single mating. Should hopefully be only a few more batches to go, as much as I do enjoy the babies. I may need to get another tank set up for some of the girls, as it is. And/or see if the fish store would like some back.
I was just trying to catch a couple of little boys out of there, and got one. I think. It’s in a breeding net holding cell in the bigger tank for now, to make sure I did scoop out the right one. Adult males are like 1" long, so you almost need a magnifying glass to be sure before the boys start coloring up.
One more awesome thing? They swarm whenever you even open the lid 🙄😬 And multiple other babies of all sizes always try to swim into the little medicine cup. (Good luck with a net if you don’t want half of them in it!)
There might be food, or something else exciting for tiny fish 😅
every time i walk past his tank, this little gremlin pokes his snoot out of whatever tube he’s lounging in and begs for food. every single time. it’s the only exercise he gets all day.
not sure how this goblin noodle got 350+ notes but i’m telling him about it tonight

Pinecone Fish
No glue and glitter needed here! The pinecone fish (Monocentris japonicus) looks like the real thing on land—covered in large scales with a dark trim. They are found lurking in caves and under ledges in the Indian and Western Pacific Oceans, and are a popular aquarium fish.

Look for these beauties in our deep water tank in the Tropical Gallery!

Some of the bigger Endler Boys doing what they do best: chasing each other around, and just generally acting like nuts.
The male fry have been getting separated out into that tank as I spot them, to join their uncles. (The original two males from one LFS.) There are maybe 10 in there so far, with the others lurking back in the plants somewhere.
