Oh, sad you can't take him with you. Why not? That is very cool that he is becoming more familiar with you. When that happens; Finwin calls them Water Puppies Hee hee. His red coloring is coming in. Maybe he will be Hot Pink---your favorite color wasn't it? . His nuchal hump is noted. Looks good with the colors of your tank. Nice partnership of colors.He loves that food. This past probably two days he’s gotten more aggressive feeding. He chase down a piece of food quickly. It’s fun to watch. I also have to complain about how fast they sink. I was just thinking that today. I’ve been sticking the tips of my fingers in the water everyday. Each time he’s been getting closer to my fingers. Maybe he’ll hand feed soon. Sadly going back to college so will only see him on some weekends. At least he’s coming with me next term.
