I spent an hour this morning swapping fish. I've moved the ember tetras from the 50 litre to the 125 litre, and the male endlers the other way.
I don't have female endlers any more. When I gave away the last lot of fry, I gave the females away too. So I have only 8 males.
The ember tetras were not happy in the 50 litre. I think they felt very exposed; it's not got as much in the way of cover as the 125, and it's in the kitchen so gets more passing 'traffic' than the 125, so I decided they'd be better off in the bigger tank.
In order to catch these two lots of fish, I had to remove everything from both tanks.
In the 50, when I lifted one of the pieces of wood, I discovered half a pygmy cory under it. Well, stuck to it. I have the horrible feeling I might have squashed it during a water change on Tuesday - I lifted the wood up to clean under it, and I think I might have put it down on top of the cory
But once the tank was empty, I found a cory fry! It is about 3mm long so not newly hatched.
Since I had all 8 male endlers in a bag, I siezed the opportunity to photgraph them
The photos don't do them justice - they don't show the iridescent patches of colour, only the solid colours. But you can get the idea.
In the first photo, the fish sideways on are the tiger endler at the bottom, and one of the 'wild type' (my name for them) above it.
The 'wild type' have a blue-purple iridescent patch on their backs just in front of the dorsal fin - that's the white blob in the photo. They also have tiny black spots on their abdomens, a patch of green just in front of the tail, and yellow in the dorsal fin.
The second photo shows the black neon at the top (right next to the blob of light reflecting off the bag) He has a dark grey head with yellow behind, then a patch of orange and more dark grey, then fluorescent white at the sides of his tail and dorsal fin.
The one at the bottom right against the white part of the bag is a black bar type. Besides the black and orange you can see in the photo, they have iridescent green on their bellies and just in front of their tails.
Sorry they aren't very good pics. Jesnon's photos put these to shame.
