5 weeks make a big difference

[BigUmbeeFan]

I just took this photo of 1 of my Rio Yucao orinos from Rapps. He is a solid 4 inches now. This guy is also eating whole hikari jumbo sticks.

It was 5 weeks ago today when he came home as a 1.5 inch minow.

Compare the actual fish then and now
.

wish my 2 lil guys would eat pellets!! mine are only eating live right now. they have gone after the sticks but spit them right now. i went 4 days with out feeding them to see if they would attack the sticks, nothing. so i finally gave in a got them more live because they are still small and didnt want them to die from not eating.

Here is a great Rio Meta vs Rio Yucao comparison.
In these photos both fish are exactly 4 inches , taken with exact camera in exact tank.

You be the judge

Meta on top Yucao on bottom.
