So my blood parrot is growing like crazy and so I had to swap the fish in my two tanks. The parrot went into the 40g breeder and my con was demoted to the 29g. During the swap of fish and decor, I decided to switch the sand in thje con's new tank to Tahitian moon sand. (Light sand seems to wash him out). Well the $25 upgrade was worth it!
The change was immediate. His color is much improved and he looks much more at ease, even though he's in a smaller tank! I also measured him, he's 5.5 inches TL. Here's some pics...
A "before" pic to show how washed out he was:
