My number 1 stunna FH fry, I know hes not nicest colurs but I selected him for body genetics.. in this pic he is 1.5 inches and already has a head going. I am keeping him in a bare 5 x2x3 tank to help pump him up and get over baby shyness.

What do you think of his head at that size? he still has baby face but when will he develop monkey face?
I know that forehead will grow out forewards then start to grow ala a lyonsi, but ive never had a devil face fh fry with that big of a forehead at this small so I'm excited : )

I am doing daily water changes to help him grow. any more tips?

Does anyone have pics of a grown FH that looked like this as a baby?

His mother was regular zz and his dad was a monsterkok SRD
 
Btw I am putting the little fish in a big bare tank because I heard this is what chonburiman farm does to pump up their fry.. To help them feel more domineering over their environment and help with head. Any thoughts on this? good idea or no?

I also use a mirror occasionally, and he shares a tank wall with a big midas im growing out so they fight thru the glass

I tried it with one of my less agressive fry and she (probably) was too scaredy so I had to put a cave in there
 
Only 1.5" with a head like that? Hell yea. Nice grow plan should help him reach full potential.
