    Well...here they are. My little guys arrived ok today. They were definately on the hot side of things when I opened the box. Slowly acclimating at just under 2 drops / second. Added a fresh slice of zucchini to their bowl. Not too long after, I already saw one catching a nibble.

    Well start with a group photo. Here they are right before flying solo in the bowl:

    Some Individual shots:

    And one more group shot with zucchini:

    It will be a couple more hours before they are ready to go into the tank. With their arrival today, I didn't get the scaping done to where I wanted it. So, we'll leave it as is for a spell. Once they are more comfortable, I can start working in the tank again.

    Tough call. I would wager that these guys are a few months old.
