Nice fish! I love salvini, they're definately one of my favorites.

Tasty....


I feed twice a day.

That's a skinny Salvini, should be feeding it a solid staple diet of pellets and less feeders

Nice. I agree that they should get something other than live. Easier and cheaper to feed and cuts down on disease risk. If you are breeding your own, nothing wrong with an occasional serve yourself meal.

[nicklepl8ed]

I'd cut down the feeders to once a month or just not bother at all, they hold little nutritional value compared to high quality pellets like Hikari/NLS. If you got him 3 days ago that's fine, he (sexing it for you ) obviously isn't having any problems with appetite so I'd just keep him on a solid but varied diet of high quality pellets and vegetables. Male Salvinis will get about 8" long and will round out fairly nicely, and they will get especially thick, much like most of the larger centrals.

Here's a decent shot of a mates Female.
