They are Africans Joe. S. Lineola to be exact. I won't be seperating them. They will live in a large net cage until they are about L3 or 4. The adult in the pic who laid an ooth last night is the mother of these too. This is probably my favorite speices right now. So easy to raise. Samzo: I just stuck a part of fake plant through a hold in the side of the container and exposed a bit of the wire and stuck it into the foam on the ooth. I always have tons of flies on hand so these guys will be fed well.
