Jexnell and Ichthioguy, both of those fish are beautiful. I have some familiarity with Casper and have always admired him. Once adult sized what size tank did your fish reside in? What is the filtration used and what is the water change routine? Just curious and want to learn.

Caspers whole life, when I had him as I can't say what Jeff Rapps had him in, was a 6ft 125gal. Over the years his filtration changed. Started as a FX4 and AC110'S, later on a removed the FX4 and he had just triple AC110'S. Water changes were fin lvl (around 75 to 80%) every 3 days.
 
The water change schedule is impressive. I think that is the main key for the healthiest fish
