And one for Yolk Sac, lest he think I have forsaken the path.



HBG thriving here too - note no concave stomach region. I think that fish has some potential. Awesome.

YP - CONGRATS AMIGO!!! I'm ear to ear smiling. I'm guessing male, did you flip it and check urogenital? If female it should be showing a little by now? Well done...very happy.

Cody Note - I agree the 8" YP is likely a male.
