It's an odd jaw deformity, I'm guessing you are treating anyway because they were in not so good a condition when you got them, you'll have to keep us all posted if anything changes.

Is that a slight scale damaged on picture 2 or the light?

Anyway, who cares you've finally got some and I know you nurse them back to full health.

Love the sand picture

I haven't started any treatment yet as I haven't had the time to buy the Melafix... will most probably do so tomorrow...

Yes, that's scale damage - most probably caused by the wood AND the reason why I had to change the setup...

Anyway, here are some updates pictures of the tank (new decor) and the fish...

Excellent shots as usual Lou, they seem to be getting better on there own but melafix won't hurt. I put it down to a less stressed environment and these shots confirm red tail for me as well.

All finished already? I'll hunt down the thread

I was thinking they look like laticlavius in the new shots too. Exodon has somewhat of faint stripes almost like gouramy.

The glass on your tank Lou must unbelievablly clean and clear. For you to get such great shots. Some really nice Photography there Lou...Trust me I should know about such things, with my Big Fat Ass in Photography, from Parsons. Figure that one out.

You know what Lou, let's trade I'll take your little ones and you can have my monsters. Yesterday I saw a nice Albino GG and thought hmmmm... I wonder should I try to raise another killer GG? All I would have to do is just get rid of the other misc fish I have and start buying other GG and before you know it Wamoo I'm raising nothing but Giants in my 180G and looking for a bigger tank or pond.

Well what happend after my small family emergency told and showed me that these beast have got too go. Came home to a tank full of food, really the dude that I asked to feed the fish the pre-measured amounts of food took it upon his self to feed them extra and needless to say the tank was full of uneaten FOOD. NO really, this guy fed them, I can only guess-estimate three or more times than they would eat, the rest lay on the bottom rotting.

So I think it's time that I go back to small little fish and plants, something that requires nothing more than a pinch of food once per day or too.
