He's still just a little guy, but he'll be a big boy soon enough. Just wanted to give a BIG thanks to hybridtheoryd16, you helped me out a ton with my setup and cuda info.:cheers: Anyways, enjoy my fuzzy pics!

Awesome man

How big is he?
If he's over 5" then u have your self a 100% Falcirostris. But if he is 3" or so it could end up 1 of 2 possibles.

Just watch those water parameters and be prepared to do water changes if anything shows up.

Well, he's about 3.5" right now, maybe closer to 4". The only thing I worry about is how much he's rubbing his nose against the glass :( He has a pretty worn nose right now and I don't want it getting any worse. What are my options? Anything I can add to the water to help cure it a bit? I know Prime helps with the slime coat, but I was thinking about adding some epsom salt to aid it a bit more. Any advice? Thanks!
 
Nice cuda! I had one that looked exactly the same. I never bothered to figure out what SP it was though but I think it was a minimus
 
You can use regular table salt or ice cream salt at 1 table spoon for every 5 gallons of tank water to help heal him up.

Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate and its only use in aquariums is plant fertilizer and a fish laxative...lol
