Thanks for the encouragments.

It a really beautiful process where even non fish addicts would stop and stare.

Now my dad would sit and stare at the tank for quite a while.

Even my mum would tell me to stop messing with the tank.

My wife and children forbid me to sell them.

Anyway if any of you guys are keen, the first batch is almost 1.5cm and ready for a new home. Just drop me a PM, do note that I am not selling them.

Here's a look at the parents some 2 weeks later.
Still looking great IMO.
