H. formosa

[Terry Mercer <tmercer at wichita_infi.net>]

Robert,

The H. formosa arrived about three hours ago and they are all happily (?)
swimming around in their new home. Have already had two fry (well, not me
personally, but you get the idea!).

Which brings me to my question: everything I read on H. formosa indicated
that adults eating the fry was not a problem. However, I have one very
active little male that consumed one fry in the twinkling of an eye, and
chased the other back into the heavy Java Moss. Do you reckon this is a
result of the stress of shipping? Can I anticipate that he will settle down
and become a more typical papa...or should I move him to another tank?

Thanks again.

Terry
