Thanks for the kind words everyone. And yes the timing was scarily perfect! He is approx. 4.5 inches long, the biggest one they had. All the others had much more spotting and were smaller.

You said you had tried to keep him with other fish, but they attack him. Mine seems pretty territorial, I saw him nip my BN when he tried to muscle in on an algae wafer in his cave. My dad is doing a discus tank and I was wondering your opinion on mixing him with discus? If he is going to bite and stress them then I will probably just leave the tank he is in set up and let him have it, it is around 70 gallons. Thanks.
