So having added 2 Jordanella Floridae to my tank, I have another
question...are they ever going to stop hiding back in the large Java Moss
forest and am I going to eventually see them front and centre with the rest
of the gang???  FWIW mine do not seem to be bothering any of the other
occupants of the tank(mainly tetra's and a couple of guppies) and from whta
I HAVE seen of them, they have a very nice colour.
