Ive had these guys about a year now, i'm pretty sure they're just farmies, but i figured i share a couple pics

monolarris lol id say farmies too .
what are ya feeding them?

 

[jus243]

krill, market shrimp, stuffed talapia, and the occasional night crawler. im still workin on gettin them to take the pellets without being stuffed in the talapia

 

[fish junkie]

very nice yeah im pellet trainnig also it sucks but the rewards are worth it

 

[jus243]

its just these 2 that choose to be picky as hell, i have 5 baby orinos that i could probably throw rocks to and they would eat em

 

[R32flow]

Im in the same boat. My bass will only eat maket shrimp, with massivore pellets stuffed inside. If you change it up in any way they wont even touch it.

Yup, It really helps if you train them young. They can be quite stubborn when they get older

Very nice.

I had a couple of similar sized farmies, also dark substrate and background.
I changed the substrate to a light brown (in my avatar) and the green came out in them
