Does a Solo Synspilum develup nuchal hump?

[Miguel]

Lately I have been entertaining the idea of keeping sevaral solo CA set ups ( males ), as many other MFKers are also contemplating.

My question is: Does a solo kept Synspilum male develop the nuchal hump? I am only interested if it does.

Yes, but alot later in its life... when around a female or other males nuchal will grow faster. Mine have began to grow at 6 inches because around other synspillums.

thank You. My idea, when keeping solo, is to have an impressive specimen, so the nuchal would be a must.....
