how many inches is he? I got two Hypselecara temporalis from Wetspot Feb 1st. They were around 3 1/2 inches? and now they're 5 or so and haven't really changed in color. They're almost white but change color here and there. You can see the pink and green coming through when the light hits them in just the right way. I'm waiting for them to go full on color. They're growing really fast and bulking up big. I feed them tilapia fillets and Hikari pellets.

Nice yes there color varies from mood and mine is really coloring up now that it's bigger and more dominant
He/she is idk I'm gnna guess a good 4-5"
 
I'm confused with you tanks, do you have multiple setups with your chocolates, true parrots and severums? Or are they all in the same tank or do you just move your fish around a lot[/QUOTE

Nah bro I just have 1 main overstocked tank filtered by a Cannister and a 30 gallon sump
I will try that food out I don't mind feeding all kinds of food. Do you order that online ? Never seen that in my lfs
 
I can give you my guys contact info. He sells 1 pound bags for 12 dollars. Check out the ingredients online if you want and the reviews. My fish love it and have super good results. Check out Mike manns YouTube. He fed all his fish on it, especially his umbees which are well known around the whole country.

Do they have any pellets that help with like internal parasites
Kinda like nls hex shield ? I need some like that but the nls hex shield is pricey

What I used to get rid of internal parasites that worked super well was soaking my pellets in Vita Chem mixed with garlic Guard. Also soaking my pellets in Epsom salt and feeding them that for 3 to 5 days did the trick for me. So i first did the pellets soaked in Epsom salt for 3 to 5 days and then used Vita Chem and garlic Guard and my fish were eating like absolute pigs aging within a week. I also add Vita Chem right to my tank. It worked wonders for me. It triggered a lot of spawning and pairing up too. But to answer your question, no I don't believe southern delight has that type of food but my fish won't eat nothing but southern delight and I've had some amazing results on it. The colors and growth on my fish has been really good feeding this stuff. Mike Mann had the nicest umbees in the country in my opinion and he only fed southern delight
