Whoa that guy is super thick. How's the personality on him?

pretty good personality...not a glass banger ,or siphon attacker but is always out and as you noted he is super thick which portrays his successful food begging personality and his ability to manipulate me.....

Bro....lol that Mota looks soooooo evil haha Mine is almost 5" I think, but my male GT is dominating him somehow.....how's that possible? Male GTs just don't back down from anything? The GT was the last fish I added too - was 3x the size of all the Parachromis grow-outs I started w/ in that tank, now I moved everything else and it's jus the GT, RTM and a few armored catfish

Growth is pretty quick, it feels......I got him in March/April 2016 and he was 1.5". This is the smaller of the 2 males I had, the other larger one became psychotic at 3"-3.5" and I had to move him in w/ the heavy-hitters and it was too soon. Luckily I moved the Doviis in time and the Jags ad they are doing fantastic

Thanks frank....yes I have focused a lot of my attention and effort in raising this fish...I have for the most part kept him alone or in a tank with a divider for the protection of all....yours looks good and reminds me of mine when he was that size.......
