Fish Crazy
Finally took some photos of the ladies for you guys and a shot of their home if anyone was interested. Everyone is doing well (can you tell I'm a little proud at the moment). Still need help with names. Beside everyone's photo I'll let you know their personalities. If anyone could help with tail and colour clarrification that'd be great. If I know the rays I'll put that up too 
A few ladies are being particularly difficult to photo and let me count rays 
They are in a 200L (approx.), 4ft tank. Planted as you can see. There is 5 female bettas, one veiltail angel (Rocky), four khuli loaches (one is a black actually), 2 male guppies (freebies from the lfs as they jumped in the net when they were catching me a cory), 5 long/high fin pepper corys and 3 albino corys.
The tank
First up we have 'little black'. You might remember she had a pretty well chewed tail when I first bought her. It's grown back beautifully! She's bigger than the others and might I add can be a little madame! She patrols the back of the tank and the right side by the looks of things but doesn't hesitate to tell someone where to go. She is also impossible to photo...these photos don't do her justice! She's black with purple speckles, 4rays. Thinking of calling her Queen B.

Next we have 'little blue'. She's really pretty, again 4rays from what I can see but she's only tiny so very difficult to see. She tends to hide in the piece of driftwood unless little black chases her out Her and little red have had a few 'flaring confrontations' but no nipping or much chasing. She's very pretty though, a slight marbling pattern I think.

Off in the distance
I'll move on to 'little red'. This is the one I was certain was a male
She's very showy, I think she's a crowntail as she has the spikey tail and fins. She's red and irridecent silver. I'm going to call her Prisilla (Queen of the desert) purely because I thought she was a very pretty male 
She likes to hang around the piece of bogwood, but doesn't hesitate to go snooping in little blues driftwood.
In her bogwood
And again
Now to start on the two newest additions. This little (same size as black) red girl I am sure is a VT...2rays? She came to me a little chewed up but doing great now. She tends to keep to herself and is only just starting to check the place out. She tends to stick to the left side of the tank. She is only now starting to fade the stress bars, but they still come back every so often. I think she's doing well though, no troubles eating or anything.
She's quiet bright
Last but certainly not least, my little light blue what I think is a cambodian? female. No idea on rays, she's tiny! I absolutely love her colouring though! She was on the thin side when I bought her but she's eating well so I have high hopes for her. She's such a sweety and keeps to herself. She reminds me of a little girl off in her fairy land. I wanted to call her Odette (like the Swan Princess) but I'm not sure. Any ideas? She tends to hide in the fluffy plant up the back, under the banana lily leaf or cruising around the front left. She's a favourite

Do you have enough light? I have found in my shrimp tank it doesn't really want to grow too well but since I've put some on a rock into the 4ft it's gone nuts.
