One of my favorite fish. Their adult color is such a nice shade of Olive. He looks fat and happy, but I thought they were faster growers, like Oscars. Either way, nice fish and I look forward to updates.

cheers mate he did start growing really quick but has slowed down now i would say he's grown half as fast as my oscar, the 6inch measurement is just an eyeball guess ive never had him out i will keep this post updated he's one of my favourite fish :)

I may get one of these in the future. I dont think their gentle temperment would work with my cichlids. Yours looks great!

thanks mate, as to the temperment he wont start anything but has no problem handling himself but then again your cichlids might be alot more agressive then mine!

Hands down my favorite cichlid. Great coloring on yours. I've seen them change colors, but never seen one as bright as yours.

thanks mate the colours maybe a little decieving as ive only got a camera phone but he generally ranges from a milk chocolate colour to a turkish delight!
