in Hemitremia's garden with you...
These are the tiny fry that I bought at the convention this year, all grown up.
Thanks Bob for your work to captive breed these little gems.

I also captured and measured the group that were inside in the 40 gallon breeder tub tank in the basement. There were sixteen fish in that tank (average TL 1.22 inches) that seemed to be in somewhat better color than the outside fish. This is unusual to me, but may just be due to the warmer outdoor temperatures the past couple of weeks, while the basement temps are relatively cool. These fish are smaller on average, but that is mostly because of the smaller individuals that survived indoors, whereas outdoors, there were only the ten larger ones (the average size of the ten largest ones inside was about the same as the average of the ones outside).
So it seems that I can maintain them and grow them, inside or out, but I did not get any reproduction in my pond set up (with no current) liek I was hoping. But we will see what these other individuals outside can do... or maybe what these outside fish will do when they are inside with a little current?

Someone asked me the other day how well the indoor fish are holding color, so I thought I would make a quick video to show what they look like on an average day in the spring...
The ones outside also look very healthy and active... but I haven't seen any small ones yet... I'm obviously not doing everything right that Derek is doing...
