Thanks guys, he seems to have more color everyday. So the original whiteness must have just been stress from shipping.
Still no aggression, although he does follow some of the cichlids around whenever he catches the scent of food around feeding time, but he hasn't actually gone after anyone just yet. I'm going to call the place I got him from and see if he was on live food before I got him, because he's still really hesitant with dry food. He'll eat 1-2 pellets a day, and it takes forever before he even considers eating them

Oh you'll know...just check in the morning...that's when my Jardini always had a fish n his mouth...lol

 

[charles-n-charge]

Well I'm hoping I don't wake up to that lol

Just checked, they were feeding him live food before I got him. So that explains why he's so hesitant of dry food

 

[jordanroda]

He'll love crickets & guppies...

Keep feeding him the carni sticks, don't take a step backwards you'll regret you did.

My Leichhardti wiped out my school of serpae tetras they were about 2" he was about 7" one a day till they were all gone. I wasn't surprised but they seemed too big for him at the time, they have bigger mouths than you think. He's now starting to eye up my bicher.

Nice looking jar you have.

 

[charles-n-charge]

That's the plan. I have no intentions of getting him back on live food.
I'll introduce him to frozen food tonight and see how that goes
