The first batch did exceptionally well, so today they have been transferred and I got what should be the final batch for now.
25 more cardinal tetras to complete the shoal.
A platinum and "blue leopard" angelfish. I wanted an all black and all white angelfish as an extended theme with my black neon tetras, but the second angel is weird. It was sold as a blue leopard, but it looks nothing like one (leopards have spotting and, especially when young like my angels are, are lighter in color while the one I have is solid black like a black veil).
For the record, this is what a blue leopard looks like. And given how it cost more than even the platinum, chances are I was upcharged for a misidentified breed since from what I've researched black veils don't cost as much. I'll probably go back within the week to get that sorted out...
And finally, I specifically sought out orphans since it's a nice feeling to give loners a new home, and fun since you can get a random ragtag group. As such, I got two different hatchets, a marbled and I think common (Carnegiella strigata and Gasteropelecus sternicla respectively) and a Miguelito cory (Corydoras virginiae). Technically, one of the cardinals was also an orphan as it was in a separate tank with no other cardinals.
