I got 12 from flatfishleo AJ on Monday april 8 about 9 of them are a little over 3.5 inches. I feed them NLS bloodworms, Cychlid Delight. Omega one color enhancing pellets. Hikari staple Pellets. Frozen Brine Shrimp.
There in a 150 gallon i do 75 percent water change twice a week. And 30 gallon change everyday. I have 2 powerheads on each side and two canister filters with uv light. These fish look very healthy and fat. I got one at 3 inches thats super bright orange i cant believe the color he or she is displaying for being so small

Its a small 1mm sinking pellet formula, I use it because it's supposed to greatly improve color and its one of the few pellets they can actually fit in their mouth without it being crushed up
Yeah that sounds like what I do, I pamper my fish but 75% water changes twice a week is actually bad for your tank and fish I wouldn't do more than 1 50% a week
On a separate note, I just added two more clown loaches to my school making a total of 5 now. The terrors don't seem to mind them at all they actually get along well and sometimes swim together in one giant mega school
I'm going to check that out bro. I only do a 30% water change 1 time per week. I added a school of 3 large Cory cats to help clean up the extra pellets so now my clean up crew is 4 clowns 3 corys 1 flying fox and a long fin spotted pleco

Yeah, aren't they such messy eaters? And 30% a week is optimum for a tank that isn't overstocked imo. and your tank is def not overstocked haha your fish must love all the room
