Hey guys! I have a question on flagtails and I know quite a few of you keep them. Specifically I'm looking for those who have grown them out from young juvies. I've had my flagtail a couple months now. It's about 2-1/2 to 3". He seems to be growing very slowly. I currently have him in a 55 gallon with 4 Bolivian Rams until he gets enough size on him to go in my 150 with the big boys.
My questions are:
1) do you find them to be slow growers?
2) when do they develop the reddish orange coloring in their caudal fin? Mine has just a hint of yellow right now.
Here's a couple pics of mine.
