I can't believe I'm posting such **** photos on the Internet, but these are the only pics of them I have at the moment. So pardon the quality please.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. An update: after adding a massive load of dry leaves yesterday, the water is now very tannin-stained, and the female's belly has become even redder. The signs look good.
