They were housed in water of PH 5.4 when i first got them. Hence, the coloration is dull (the tub pix).
coloration did improved and feeding very well as i house them to water with PH 6.8 with fairly dark gravel. now I've moved them into a "light" tank with water at abt PH7. I will have to see the feeding portion and see if they are feeding well. |
