| Males can be sneaky enough to get out of and back into fry savers on occasion. He's probably in the tank somewhere but if you don't have a lid on the tank he mite have unfortunately snuck out the wrong way... | |

| Yeah they sure are, a few weeks ago I lost one whilst jumping, it hit the top of the glass and obviously broke it's neck in the process. She was one of my breeders too. | |

| thanks for the responses. I haven't seen him yet. I think I may get some longfin albinos and some peppermints and have a go at breeding them, then when the ABN fry have grown up I will switch them out for some different bloodlines and have another go with them. So if anyone near sydney has any peps and/or longfin albinos that are of a breeding size I'm interested. | |

| Yes they are jumpers. I lost a female BN a few weeks ago. I'd say she broke her neck whilst jumping and hit the top of the glass in the process. | |
