Thanks for the insight, so that would be a good indicator they are actually Axanthics (aka Silvers). if they are like that when they hatch. (I know I read a thread about their validity as neonates now that a few seconds has passed since I read your response).

Guess sometimes I need to be told twice.

Thanks again!!

Frank
