Looks like he's got serious potential! Here's a pic of my little Vontehillo. Actually need to get an updated one as this ones a couple months old. Carpintis are great fish to keep. Good luck with him.

Fantastic "Vontehillo"! You don't often see them that tall-bodied, usually much sleeker... I like this look!
 
I love his color, kind of a deep"er" blue color to him Jake.

Thanks man. Yeah he tends to get that darker blue when he's pissed off...which is 99% of the time that people are around his tank. You gotta watch him when you're working in the tank as he loves to bite and chase you away. Lol. Carpintis are real characters.

I cant wait to see how mine turns out. I have been feeding pellets mainly but picked up some more blood worms yesterday. I feed them this morning with blood worms and he went nuts! Normally when I feed pellets he waits till night time when the light goes out then he swims around and picks them up off the bottom. This morning though, as soon as the worms thawed and started falling it was like a little light went off in his head lol. He was darting out and going nuts for em.

Cant wait to see how he turns out, I think he has a lot of potential and if he keeps progressing this way I think he is going to be a stunner. :D

Lol yeah they love them. Try getting some mealworms, krill and night crawlers too. Keep his diet varied and always keep him on a good pellet mix. My guy tears through NLS and Hikari sinking carnivore pellets(had him on massivore for awhile too)

I picked up some krill and night crawlers also, but he didn't seem to sure on the Krill and I haven't offered him night crawler yet so I am not sure how he is going to like it. I have been feeding him Kens Premium slow sinking growth pellets as a staple.

I was thinking about trying NLS next time I buy food.
 
sweet texas man! he is gonna be a beauty!!! If I were you get him trained on NLS and feed it exclusivly till aboit 6 7 inch. IMO NLS gives a fish everything they need for health and beauty lol
