Lol, fishguy got here first. But don't worry, the rtm are starting to color up. I notice a new fleck of red each day, lol.tydus;2216364; said:Darn it! Why didn't I see this. LOL. You are one lucky dude fishguy. Can't wait to get the RTM.![]()
They seem to have gotten a little bigger too, since the last waterchange (2 days ago).Fish on Fire;2216533; said:Lol, fishguy got here first. But don't worry, the rtm are starting to color up.

And you haven't even had one yet!!!tydus;2216716; said:That's good to hear, I am just so excited. Can't wait for them to actually be in my tanks.They are quickly becoming one of my most favorite New world cichlids out there.
Lol, I'm thinking about isolating the "large" male that I'm gonna be bringing to you to see if I can get a little more size on him before I bring him up. But then again, it won't be too long of a wait so I don't know if it'll make any difference, lol. Soon I'm only going to have 2 fish growing out in the 55.
One dovii and one rtm. Weird thing is, the rtms and doviis generally leave each other alone. They only pick on their own species.Fish on Fire;2216746; said:And you haven't even had one yet!!!Lol, I'm thinking about isolating the "large" male that I'm gonna be bringing to you to see if I can get a little more size on him before I bring him up.

I prefer not to have brothers do their thang with their sisters, lol. I'm planning to grow the two I keep as solo males, they'll get their ladies when they become men.tydus;2216775; said:After looking at all the pics of the RTM like Mo's and House's, I am getting addcited to them. LOL. But yeah, that's awesome, putting some size on them will give me a headstart. So all you want is a RTM and a dovii? No breeding pairs?
