Carpintis - Update 6 months with me

[scratanut]

Hi again,
He has grown about 6" now, pictures not as good as last update.

e

Let me know what you think about it.

Thats a good lookin fish you got there. Where'd you get him?

 

[peathenster]

beautiful ... good job

 

[scratanut]

At this size hes very skittish unlike many other cicihlids, like I used to have a Gt who started banging the glass at 4" mark. He never eats unless I move away from the tank and keeps hiding mostly in my presence. How to make him bold and fight back?

 

[young_rico]

is it in the tank by its self?

 

[scratanut]

@rico...no, a jewel and e.maculatus are there and a few zebra loaches.

 

[young_rico]

i was going to suggest dithers but it seems like that wont work........
