Luther Update

[LBDave]

Golden Kel Luther was previously threaded in "Luther Says Hello". Here is an update showing his nodule hump developing.
Excuse the dirty water as this happens during feeding time (re: oscars).
One pick also shows a red oscar that has a slight hump head.
Also include pic of sibling "Theo" + tank shot to give a bit of scale (excuse the reflections).

They both look very nice but Luther is stunning!

I know. He's the champ. I will keep posting updates as he grows and moves to new tank.

Keep em comin.....is that some kind of piranha in the tank?

Right now it looks like Theo will stay in this tank. Sort of a shame because the 2 bass will hang together but then Luther goes sort of ballistic.
Sort of bi polar. As he is getting bigger he is getting more aggressive. Hormones I guess.

Theo is no wuss. Practically jumps out of the tank when he/ she hist food. Just can't hold up to Luther.

Oh no. These are silver dollars I have had for years. When I had my old hex tank I totally fell out of the hobby. I didn't care. Didn't even change water. I didn't know any better. These guys lived through it. Now growing again after being 5 years old! They breed almost every time I change water. I think its the Vita Chem. The biggest one is about 5". Martha the female.
The pbass actually check them out and sometimes eat the eggs as they drop.
