I’ll keep them in here for a couple weeks until I get my 75 gallon a little more suitable with the 2 males in there.

Magnolia leaves will be here in a few days and looking for another large piece of wood and more cover. Maybe more java moss to fill more holes?

I wonder about the fish on the right in the first photo. Thread-like extensions on ventral fins of females are not typical. But who knows, domestic females often show male traits.

Yes, I did think that was a little unique. Seems everything else points to female so fingers crossed! Here a better pic of the other one that has it as well:
