It looks like more when they congregate in that corner (there are 16 of that species in the 40 gallon breeder).
Here is a close-up of a male:
and a female:
Note the algae EVERYWHERE! On plants, on rocks, on the walls. I worked HARD for MONTHS to get this much algae (and types they WILL eat). They are mowing through it fast though.

I'm trying to mimic the rainy season, so have lowered the water level and bumped up the temp a bit to start out.
When the pressure gets low here (whether it rains or not), I add 5 gallons of RO water, 10 degrees cooler than the tank's temperature and 'rain' it in with a spraybar.
Water here is wayyyyyyy hard, so I'm adjusting the GH slowly with each addition of water. When I do water changes, I do 50% RO and 50% tap.
