I think I pulled the wrong male.

Check out this guys profile.




I didn’t take him out because of his nipped fin. I know it will grow completely back, but at the time it’s what turned me off him.
He has paired up with the dominant female and they are slowly taking over the tank.

I may need to pull them aside or get rid of his brothers so they can have the tank.
He might be the next stunner.

I really wish I had a good light on his tank to show his spangles. This guy has surprised me so much over the past few days.

I'm sure his brothers would just be as nice in coloring if they were the dominant male

I’m sure they would too.
I think they all have the potential, they just need the opportunity.

He's really turning into a looker. You've got a nice pair.

Thank you! I’m feeling pretty excited about this guy.

Top picture was taken last Friday, bottom is from just now.

His body is taller looking, possibly just because of his forehead but still...
He has also chunked out. Lol
I think it’s a pretty impressive change in only a weeks time.

I also tossed a light on the tank so I can see them better.


Now he just needs to get trailers to complete his look.

 

[MrsE88]

He’s coming along

Great looking little fellow!

Great looking little fellow!

Thanks!
He doesn’t sparkle like his brother did, but I’m really pleased with his tall body.

Very nice. Very clean water. The fish, the gravel, the rocks. Your tastes and fine agree.
