Biig lap! You might not get a lot of pattern development because of the light substrate, but it looks like you're running dim lighting, so maybe it will (since your sen has normal color).

What happened to it's nostrils?
 
Yea I know the substrate is too light, I am gonna change it for something darker. Im just having alot of trouble finding what I want...
Im not sure if it even exists :P

I dont want black or grey because the whole tank is black already so itll just look dull then. And I remember a while ago Loubard had a redish gravel which looked really cool and brought out his endlis colors really well. But I am a gravel hater. I want sand. SO im tryin to find red sand... if i cant find it i already found some mixed sand thats like black white and brown mixed giving it a nice mix that will work wel aswell...
 
and by the way his nostrils got banged off during catching him. he was darting around givin us a hard time so he banged into the glass a few times... they shud grow back in no time i think...
 
just wait till i have them on red sand sitting next to 2 gorgeous teugelsis ;)
