white cloud fry

The two white cloud fry have quit hanging out at surface in the floating hornwort, are often in the open water column now with the adults. I can even see them from across the room.
Still very small. The younger one is just starting to show red on its tail
Larger fry has its pretty bright blue streak-
Very hard to get a photo of them. Few more of the older fry (though none exactly in focus)
The adults are flirting and showing off to each other- see first pic- I've been watching them spawn in the bolbitis fern. I expect to see more fry soon. Wonder if more will survive as the days warm up.
