Oh naaasty. That's too much hump for a GT imo. Looks like he had a golfball implanted into his head.

How old is he? Freakin awesome!
Are yall saying that Massivore Delite makes the nuchal hump get bigger? That thing is enormous for a GT.
I cant verify it but that is the only thing I am doing different with this guy.I also put it down to my guy being fairly domminent,even holding his own against my Jag who is somewhat larger.He is now in another tank without the others to keep him dominent , recieving more food and his hump has grown even bigger.His hump only grew larger after making his main diet Massivore Delite.I put it down to the high protien diet and the fact that he loves the stuff.He used to be picky with other foods but he cant get enough of the Massivore Delite.Dont get me wrong.I am well aware that genes play a large role but I am in Australia and we cant import GT's(saums) here anymore so you are looking at a fish that is many generations down from a wild caught specimen.balton777;1244744; said:
Glad to see that this thread is still of interest. I love this fish and very much enjoy looking at everyone else's. I got him in late Oct of '06 so he is just over a year old now.
Here he is a few weeks after I brought him home after he had settled at about 2.75".
Then 4"
And now at 8"(TL)
I'm thinking its time to start giving the "Massivore" a try. He is the coolest cichlid I've ever owned.
I'm still keeping him in a 55 gallon pretty much all to himself now. Doing 50% water changes weekly. Probably will end up upgrading to a 75 (might even spring for a extra 2" heighth and go with a 90) if he keeps growing at this rate. He is quite active.
