Am I right that keeping F8s in BW also will bring their color out more? One of my F8s had really boring color when I got her (they were kept in FW when I bought them), and now she looks great :D

A healthier, happier fish will have better coloring.

Good to know I have happy, healty fish, then :D
When I bought them, only one of them had those beautiful drawings as F8s can have. The other one only had those to spots on each side. Yesterday I suddenly found her to have just as beautiful drawings as the first one. :D I was soooo happy to see that! :D
