    @HennieRoux man your fish have came a long way, could you please update the last batch as those fish are superb. Do you have any new batches on the way?

    HI @HennieRoux.

    Thanks for the female you gave me. However she is very shy and don't come up at feeding times.
    Any Advice?

    The corrys are doing very well though.

    Regards

    @HennieRoux - Angel's, corrys, neons, guppies, SAE, 2 sword tails and a krib.
    I can see they not picking on her though.
    She took a small bite tonight and she is still looking good.
