Frank has a breeding colony of these little native gems.

I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a very peaceful native that could use a little preservation. We had a group of 4 and I really enjoyed watching them glide around the tank. Unfortunately we lost them in a tub outside last summer, probably due to the water being too hot for them. They also work year round in a pond here if you keep it acidic enough with rainwater, but of course with their coloration you'll probably never see them...
