I have recently noticed that one of my three spiders looks to have a bit of a hump forming on it's head.

They cool man don’t see many of those here.how old are they and what size approx.
Thanks Rich.I"m not sure exactly how old they are but I got them last February or March and they were much smaller.They are currently in the range of eight and nine inches.
The background fish in the second photo is an orino.

Looking good
Thanks Boost,I didn't have the tank lights on in the last photos that I shared in your thread as I usually don't use them but I see that it makes a world of difference in the photos.

I'm pretty sure we have the exact same kels. Lighting is everything. I have quiet a few watts cooking over my tank.

Did you do anything different lately that may have made their humps form? Temp, food, water changes? Has there been any change in aggression since?

No,nothing different and the above photos are of one kel.The three of them have always been pretty peaceful.
