Aequidens Rivulatus: Another beauty in the making

Good looking fish, he will surely be a stunning adult.

Does he have any tank mates? What are you feeding? What temp are you maintaining? and finally what size tank is he in?

Thanks.

Temp at 78 F. Hikari Cichlid gold and Omega One cichlid pelles mostly. Krill and shrimp pellets once in awhile. He was raised with a common pleco and 3 goldfish believe it or not and they are still with him. 75 gallon.

Slow lol. Currently 6" TL. He is starting to bulk up now.

The photo is edited right to show red instead of orange yellow tones?

No editing. LED light

No editing. Just chance how the reds came out under the led lighting.

But he is not red right?
