She lives in our 200L tank with Toothless and Bubbles.

Spectrum

Spectrum is a Halfmoon Betta. DOB 01/23
This is one of our male Betta, he is very gentle and docile, to the point he became stressed without tank mates.

Cherry Shrimp

Our Cherry Shrimp, also known as Neocaridina heteropoda, started with 2 Blue Dreams and 2 Green Jade and have breed into hundreds. 
They mostly live with Spectrum in our 30L tank, but some are moved to other tanks to ensure the breeding lines stay strong.

Toothless

Toothless is a melanistic axolotl. DOB 10/22
As Toothless is over 18mo and still presenting as female, we are confident she is female.

At 18mo Axel presented as a male and was moved to his own tank.
