Wurm! I just picked one of those about 2 weeks ago too! LOL

And I thought it was 1 in 1,000,000... *Sigh*

Let's grow them out and compare. I'll take some pics over the weekend.

Ugghh...ghey!

Besides the above uber *** comment your fish looks good. Wonder why "if they are so common" no one has any pics of a large one?
 
I'll try and grow it out. Unfortunately, looks very skinny to begin with. Looks like lots of meats and veggies.
 
I was at the LFS yesterday and they had one in a tank full of albino CAE's. I almost bought it, but I realized that I wasn't really interested in the fish, just the oddball factor.
 
As it turns out, this little fish was in disguise. I thought he was Leucistic, and sure looked like it. Since I got it, it has turned yellow, like all the other xanthic CAEs in the tank. Either I got owned, or it developed severe jaundice from me dosing the tank with Heineken daily. That's me on the right.

Funny thread. MFK needs to have a thread of the year contest.

Are you still looking for one?

Sorry, I am going back and checking out some of the things that I missed in the last month.
