he is meaner than he looks
he was being pushed around by a pair of breeding cons, and the next day, the 3"+ female con was nowhere to be seen in the tank and the 5" male was killed
recently he ate one of my red hook silver dollars too
wow godly

that's some long @$$ barbels, especially for Jardini. too bad it had DE on one of it's eyes :(
I guess that's nature's way of saying nothing is prefect
Thats a beauty.......
What are you feeding to get such vibrant color....

If it's always silver, it could be a Lei. Jar has darker color.

hey thanks man
Do note that sometime the barbel is an indicator which is telling you that the quality of the water in there is not ideal anymore thus become longer or they split wider. Do a water test and correct by checking the filtration wool and change water.
nice jar u got there like the colour and the barble

I will try to take pics of it. My red tail gourami was trying to steal the prawn that is hanging from the jars mouth and accidentally bit the right barbel when it try to turned around and avoided the gourami from stealing the food.
