I decided to fix up a tank for some of my larger orange fin fry (more than just a bare bottom tank). They have been looking really good so I thought I'd see how they would look in a decorated tank. They are so used to a bare bottom tank that they haven't started relating to the new structure yet. I figured the structure might help keep them near the front of the tank and keep them still long enough to get some decent pictures of them. In any event, I am very happy with their development. Many seem to have inherited the sparkles that their father has (which I really like). Here's a few pics from today (tank was just decorated earlier so it may be a little cloudy).

This group of F1 orange fin fry range from, approx. 1.00" to about 1.50"
