Hey guys my Dat hit a growth spurt when I raised the temp to 81 and added salt. I was just doing it as a precaution against Ick, but it triggered a spurt and now he started eating frozen fish strips.

Here he is when I got him and now. Dunno I'll guess 2.5"?

I was looking at mine and I have a couple with bomb color, but I am not noticing rampant growth either. It sucks that I can only feed once or twice per day.

thanks, I guess the mass guppy and shrimp last weekend got him going. I also moved up to 2 feedings per day and added beefheart to the menu.

so now he's nice and bright & swimmin end to end. The silver bugs him a bit, thats about the only time he hides now or goes dark.

I'll try to snap the other ng in the 30. need somethin in there to help him out. doesnt like light for nothin but luvs brichardi fry. moves to quick to get a decent hunting vid. It's like the kid from The Incredibles lol
