| Down to approx 550 fry commons, 4 adults ? ( might be going this weekend ) peppermints 4 females maybe a male but haven't seen in months, as well dont see them often sometimes in early mornings on glass than shoot of to hide there in a very large tank and are on lower pecking order.
About another 100 plus in return section. |

| I have 2 common brown and 5 Albino. All bought in pairs from different places and different times as fry (approx 1") and every single one is a male. I'm reluctant to get any more babies in case this happens again. |

| Maybe I should buy a lottery ticket?
I would be happy to give 2/3 males to someone who can collect around the Midlands then I might try my luck with a couple more babies. Today I saw a larger one bullying a smaller one. First time I have seen this. Obviously the testosterone is running high. |
