Congrats on the successful breeding!

Have you noticed any distinguishing characteristics between morphs of the two species?

The similarity between the two is surprising.

Hi Tim
The photos are not clear (bad lightning etc..) so the animals look almost the same.
Hongkongensis morph has slightly more prominent cranial ridges more granular skin and has lighter coloration of dorsal area. Deloustali is seemingly darker and has more orange/yellow spots on the ventral side. Generally deloustali morphs should be bigger as 5cm or more but these ar not. Not bred by me

Awesome, I currently am raising a small group of eggs, so. How long did it take for your eggs to hatch? Then morph? I could really use this info. Thanks

i have a group of p. fuzhongensis which are about 5cms long. does anyone know when i need to think about putting them in a cooler room (like the adults). they are just begining to spend more time in the water, or are they fine untill much older.
