Fry Description:
(Pre Settlement) |
Clear bodies. Heads always "up" in the water, bobbing around the tank for food. Primarily at the surface all the time. A few times just prior to settlement it seemed very disoriented and layed on it's side, I almost thought it was dead. |
Fry Description:
(Post Settlement) |
Bodies parallel with the bottom. Fry like to stay lower in the tank and defend their territory. Dark stripe appears on their back first, then the body gets a light orange hue. Body turns orange, then stripe follows by turning a neon blue, and fins color slowly. |
