cabinet door under him is 21" for reference.

He is a beauty man, nice work ... those rays aint too shabby either! Nice set up and fish

What are you feeding Keepin???

Can you tell us about the water parameters?

Thank you for the inspiration..... I'll be on cloud 9 if I can get even one to that size. :)

Your rays must be getting huge!!!
 
He eats Tilipia every day. He eats 1/2-3/4 of a filet daily. (which is a big piece of meat)! He has grown pretty quick, i think i got him in the beginning of march at 9" or so. He is an amazing fish....! So glad i got another!
The Leo/hen is around 14", the p14 are 11-12"(guessing)
MY ph is around 7.4 right now. It was higher this spring (7.9ish). I try to keep PH pretty close to what the tap reads. i am dripping about 3gph. Using a Wet dry with about 30 gallons of bio balls, and 2 fx5s with scrubbies and filter floss. Also running the WLIM Uv.

How many watts? Just running it off one of the FX5s or in the main return?

Thanks for the info!!! You don't mess with monitoring TDS or conductivity do you?

I think your Henleo has surpassed mine.... She just doesn't seem the same after the Pearl tried to deflower her. :(

Sure would be sweet if you could make Trev a grandpappy with P14 Henleos..... :) Is there a male BD in there too??

i really cant remember watts now.... I wanna say 25w, but maybe 40w...ill have to look tonight!
Its the smallest one. Yes it is running off the fx5

haven't checked before, i have a fancy pool text kit that i think tests tds, maybe i could get you that number???

My henleo is over three years old and only 14" seems small, she isnt a fast grower... yours was ahead of mine at the first of the year or so!

Yup, see pix, they got claspers too! The male BD is biting a little on the leohen, but nothing serious YET
 
Looking good Keepin...Mine recently ended its latest fast with a few plump sunfish.
