hey everyone just wanted to share my experience with my 2 prochilodus. I bought them at around 2" a few weeks back and they are doing great.. they are shattering growth rate guesses as they are about 3.5" long now and keeping up with my aro as you can see. they are getting alot of algea but what is very suprising is they are very much liking the frozen krill I feed. I think that is why they are growing so fast.. this is only one of them but they look almost identical..

They look great.

I should be getting a few shortly.
 
one person lost her arow because a prochildus sucked off its slime coat one night... if they decide they like slime coats at any given point, they can be very deadly tankmates.
 
thanks for all the comments. I think if I keep them fed enough they might stay away from slime..
