Thanks guys!

Mr. Spangles is just over a year old and right around 18". I purchased him at about the size of a rosey red in january last year

Mr spangles looks amazing w/ some intense growth over a year! The orino's are looking really good as well.

Thanks! He still seems to be gaining spangles and markings mainly in the belly area and 3 or 4 nice sized spangles have shown up on his anal fin.

The orinos will be going into an 18" wide tank that is plumbed into my 300 gallons sump and drip system within a week which should help a few of them get into the big tank soon
