Meet Titan, and add water and watch him grow!!!

[olsonwa07]

Gonna use this thread to document Titan's growth Got him monday 4/25 at about 3". He's got some black on his lip and in his fins, not sure if it's finrot but I plan on doing some water changes as I got him from petsmart like this, so hopefully it's nothing serious. Also picked up a battered and miserable GT for free, will show his healing process (already doing 100x better). Midas is in with my polypterus Delhezi in the 10g quarantine, so far so good there, will be moving them to the 75 he'll be in by the end of the week. Basically best bros. Pics galore for this thread, be prepared my g/f has a sick camera and I love the quality of shots I can take.

Sick camera, not so sick picture taking skills

GTs looking very bad but i hope he heals up fine!

Thanks so far, I know my picture taking skills are probably lacking compared to some folks, I really like the third pic too lol, really lucky I took the shot as it happened. Anyone think the black in his fins and on his bottom lip is a cause for concern? Just did a water change in his tank so hopefully that helps.

no its natural, nothing to worry about

Nice little RD... just so you know, quarantine should ideally be 4 weeks. A week is useless.

Yea, he's going into the tank by himself tho, I figured I'd just give the tank some time to set up (yes cycled, fish in there now, part of the reason I gotta wait is to get them out. He'd kill them).

Nice RD!!!
Nice to see you saved the GT, what beat him up so badly?

RE: Black markings.
He'll fade, just check out my albums, he looks a lot like my big guy did when he was that size.
