18 months and 3'' later......???

something is wrong here. I had a Orino at 4'' had him for 6 months and sold him at 10''.

What are you feeding the orino?
 
for the longest time he wouldn't eat anything but live but now he's eating blood worms as well i always load my feeders with nls before i feed as well hes beautiful and full of agression so maybe its a dwarf what about the parasite comment how could i tell if he has one of those? i usallyn check my params every other water change they have always been up to par
 
well i just checked with my buddy whom witch i did the order with when i got this guy and he's thinkin he's only 14 or maybe 15 months old but thats not much but it is some
 
Water parameters are up to par... what does that mean. Tell us the numbers. What temp are you keeping him at??
 
Yeah that doesnt sound right.. I got 3 orinos from rapps a little over a month ago and they were 1.5" now they are already 3-3.5" and it only took a month. they are in a 75G for now . I do a water change once a week. feed them 3 times a day on krill and somtimes feeders. ph at 6.6 temp at 84* thats just some info on how I raise them :)
 
my temp is usally 86-87 ph 6.8 im going to bump up my water changes and try to get it to eat more times a day he will never eat 3 times a day i wish but i just know him hes a brat really picky eater my others monos and occles eat every thing they don't care but any how thank you guys and gals so much i'll keep you posted thanks again
