Dats are very skiddish and like to hide. they are just now beginning to swim around their tank.

Its only a 90G tank and the bala is less than 1 year and is 6 inches. "Flared" means the color came out. Moving to a 300G in May when my wife gets me my dirty 30 Bday present.

Congrats mate!

Great news...Just like my big IT...it took 2 years to become stable.

it takes lot of patience in owning an IT, like ADE it took him 4years before finally make his dats stable. congrats and hope if you move him to their new monster tank it will become more stable.

Congrats!!! I know how frustrating the wait feels and how fulfilling it is once it has happened. I myself is waiting on my 8" NTT to color up. I've had it more than two years and its bars are still washed up.
