yeah, hope it is not too late. he was leaving in black/dark tank for long time now
I think hes nice already. I think your setups are sweet. I freakin wish I could put tanks outside.
Thanks, there are some advantages of living in tropics ^^ that said, the heating is still required in winter months cos the temperature can drop below 20C ... i found that out the hard way ... but of course no where near the severity of where you are from lol
Indeed - an update is in order. The beastie is definitely coloring up nicely. Sunlight and all plus my father finally found his favorate diet (apart from SW which is not readily available where i am from) - earthworms. he eats them like a champ.
the orange rim are definitely moving toward the tail while the front bits are getting darker ... as i suspected this fella aint gonna be red - best outcome probably deep orange - but who knows
