Upcoming melanos

Surprise that we've got melano in the spawn, about 5 of them or so. Both parents must have had melano gene (female was carrying melano, but male wasn't confirmed).

These 2 are the sample. Caudal spread isn't great yet, but they'll be HM very soon, perhaps in 2 weeks time after proper exercises and growth. They are just 1 day jarred.

This one looks like an HMPK, but perhaps because he's smaller than the other one. We shall see. Very dark colouration. He loves to run around the tank, funny little fella.

The aggressive one, he's steel-mask melano. He could flare for ages.

Will take more pictures later, or even upload the movies. Nice to know they are very active and aggressive, looking forward to their development in a month time :)
