Well I think I've finally got the tank set up the way I wanted it to look... Right now I have an abundance of cherry shrimp and 6 celestial pearl danios. Hoping that the danios spawn in the future because they are truly stunning little guys. sorry for the little black dots clogging the photo. They are from an old case and got on the inside of the lense.

Well this morning I was changing a few things around in my tank and lo and behold..... CPD FRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so excited to see two little guys swimming around in the tank. They are roughly a quarter of an inch long and look to be on the prowl for food. More updates to come!
