Very nice Mark!

How long did they take from egg to (near) metamorph?

Thanks Mark!

They took around 2 months from hatching to metamorphosis. I will post photos of the metamorphs soon.

Any particular details you're after? I've kept a pretty careful note of everything thus far, for the next time hopefully!
