Are they in sperate tanks?

The baby Lemmon is in a different tank. The red and tiger are together in a 135G with a clown knife and Venezuelan Pike cichlid. They fought like the dickens at first and still fight everytime "food" is up, but now they tagteam the ginormeous pike.

Very aggressive eaters. I was seriously mislead into believing that juvinile bowfins were not easy to get to eat.

I did however get excellent information regarding their tendencies toward having internal parasites. All six came to me 4" - 6" range with the stringy white poop syndrome. Being a cold water fish I chose to medicate (prazipro) lightly for nearly two weeks rather then the heat/ salt method. They are all passing solid brown waste.:headbang2
 
Those look so good! How old are they? Are either of them longer than 13"? The gold has a great face.

You're sure that's a lemon? Looks like a lutino, but it's kind of a washed out pic so I can't see it that well anyway.
 
The fish in the second photo looks great. The others are nice too but that one is extra nice IMO.
