'Geophagus' crassilabris ~ Progression Thread

yep, sure did.

Well since they are from the same brood and the ones at the store are smaller than my group, this species thrives on NLS 1mm and very clean water. The grow out tank they are on is on a drip system and gets 40%-50% daily water change at 82 degrees.

Absofruitly concur. The ones still at WS still look the same size as they came in.

I have the temp at 82* but I am only doing about 50% every 3-4 days. They seem to be growing and eat very well. Thanks for the tips.

Correction, the tank they are in gets about 25%-35% WC per day. 24 gallons per day in a 55 gallon tank. I don't know the exact math, the drip complicates the percentage. Too lazy to look it up at the moment.

It's 24 divided by 55, times 100. ~44%. But it is probably a little bit more because inner dimensions, substrate, etc., not actually 55 gallons.
Funny how the ones at WS aren't growing huh? (Rolling eyes)

Not much to update on bro. Just growing and eating like crazy. I took some pics this afternoon now that I finally bought the remote trigger for my remote flash. Now I just need to clean up some settings but this works for a bumpdate.

The growout tank:





The largest male:





Random pics, females etc..:






The tankmates are growing out nicely as well. I think I will start a thread on them too since I haven't been posting my stock.
