That sounds like a decent reason for the photos to be of questionable quality. Hopefully they will get big enough for some FTS.

I think they could actually eat until they explode.These were too small to even eat guppies when I first got them,I had to feed them mosquito larvae and now they are eating two or three guppies each.
That's is so true. Back in 08-09, some LFS here carried them for $10-$15 each. I grabbed 5. Those boys wiped out $5 feeders every other day. They ate until the belly was huge like a balloon about to exploded! Those are cool fish. The only thing I don't like about them is they don't make pass a heat wave here

Well,the barramundi is growing very fast now and I'll moving it to another tank pretty soon.Then I can release the Perches and let them roam around the tank.

Unfortunately, I haven't kept them for the past couple years. Even without heater, my tank temp could get as high as 90+ at 2am during summer
