Hey guys,
So I have 3 bartletts in my tank and was looking to add more. I went ahead and ordered 4 but received evansi instead. I have the evansi eating frozen already (day 2 in qt).

Was wondering what mixing these guys was like and what to expect from the evansi long term. I have read they are difficult to get eating. Guess I got lucky.

Thanks

Evansi are more peaceful and may get bullied by the bartletts. However, carberryi can look similar to both bartlett and evansi, is it possible you received those? They are sturdier than evansi.

@eatbreakfast A photo may help.
They are pinkish on the bottom and yellow up top. Some have a small pinkish line in the top of their head.

You sure they're not bartletts? Look like it to me.
