I'll buy the Kelberi back....or trade if you like. Is it about 6'' now? That little mono is growing huge and the bigger mono is looking great. Any updates on these beauties?

Haha, he's at least 6", might even be closing in on 8" and his gold is starting to come.

All of his fins are super red and growing nice sized gold dots. He chows down on massivore, nls 10mm carnivore pellets, aro sticks, bio gold, and tilapia. Basically anything and everything I throw in the tank.

That photo was taken shortly after he was dumped in the big tank. He's now completely acclimated and showing more of his colors.

All of the fish I got from your are doing amazing. The occell is just slightly smaller than the large mono and showing great color. The large mono is huge, the smaller mono is growing like a weed. The little orino I was hoping would be all blue/green has gotten red on its tail, but is spangling up nicely. He's the only pbass not in the big tank yet.

Oh, and the dats are getting large and thick as well.
 
Two month update on the Kelberi and the Orino?
 
I'll work on it!

The Kel is getting huge - probably close to 10-12" now and starting show spangling.

The little orino is pushing 6" easily and slamming pellets like crazy.

Right now I'm worried about the dat with the M on the side. He's been hunkered down for the last two weeks or so. Just rests on the bottom, leans against the side. I took him out of the big tank and put him in a 55. I've had the temp around 84-86 and added a bit of salt. Eats just fine but isn't active. I'm not sure whats up with him, but the fact that he hasn't died yet gives me hope.

"M" has his/her moments. Every so often he/she will either hide behind a plant/floating, hide behind the heater, or sits in a corner, or even kick it behind a rock. He/she needs playmates ass all.
