I want some with white outside on em Oh i think i might have some like it already.LOL. but yours look super sweet i must say. Well keep up with the awesome pics.

well the only fish i have right now is a sixline lol. and i turn off the flow and put a syringe full of shrimp right by the mouth so even if there were more fish in there they wouldnt have time to snatch the shrimp from the time it leaves the syringe and enters the acans mouth

if the damsels are getting in the way try giving them some food on the other side of the tank. while they are feeding quickly go over to the acan. It also helps a lot of turn off the flow if you arnt doing that.
