New pickup!

[Aqualoon]

Got this little guy from a local breeder. Saw his older brother who was breeding with two females and he was amazing looking for only 4". This little guy has tons of color for his size - I'm expecting him to become a stunner.

wow thats a lot of colour in that size! great pick up!

also, it looks like it has quite a long body, longer than average I would say.
here is a picture of my small female for comparison

Yeah, you're right he is a big longer in the body. I tried to take some more pictures, sadly all I have is my cell phone. He has the most green in the body that I have ever seen in a GT at his size.

He just got done chowing down on some blood worms, so stomach is a tad full...he's a little pig.

Really excited to see how he turns out, feeding three times a day (Pellets, Spirulina Flake and Blood/Black Worms) and doing 50% water changes three times a week. Very eager to see him grow up!

Is he an only cichlid in the tank?

He has nice blue spots near his cheek. More than my big male does.

Yeah, showing more color then ones I've had in the past that were twice is size.

Nope, but he is the smallest.
