What is beaked face?
It's a common 'deformity' in Blue Dempseys...

The nose sticks out a bit... the face dips in between the eyes... the two features together make the fish look like it has a beak...

The fish featured in this thread shows no signs of it...

It is possible for it not to show for a while, but in my experience severe cases can usually be detected by this size.

Beautiful little fish man. Hope he goes well. Nice tank btw, you say it's a bit sparse but I think it's great. Lots of swimming space for when your monsters need it.
