Well it's really false advertising. There are pics of the tanks and the girls now, pics of the boys come later. :D

these are poor shots, but they appear to be female scarlet badis badis--can be hard to get they tell me. The first pic is closest to the color shade. There is some light red blushing around the gills or cheeks and even some faint hints of red vertical stripes on some. But when I post the boys, there will be no confusion. :D
TA DA!

I have asked on the Yahoo forum about the suitability of scarlet dariodario being mixed in other tanks with other species. The only answer I've gotten so far is to hurry, put them in a ten gallon to protect the eggs, and breed them if I've got girls! There was no warning about the boys tormenting the other boys and girls. So far there has been no problem with the dario dario. They either have enough room, don't care or are more concerned with getting along with The Boss:

Because truely the boss of this tank is the Orange Flash

He owns the real estate: every nook and every cranny. He harrasses the females, and he possesses the caves. Two girls are not enough for this bad boy. He's "The Orange Flash!" (I miss The Gent. He was such a Gentleman.)
