Got this guy from the Wet Spot. Funny thing is I didn't read the tag to see what it is. Got it from taking in my Saggitae fry. It was the biggest royal they had atm. I figured it was so armored with bristles everywhere that Casper in short time would learn to pay him no mind. So if anyone could take a guess at what royal it is.

He/she is about 4inches now. Casper is 7. I heard they are slow growers? I have NLS algea max wafers and pellets, lots of wood, any other food suggestions?1554492513464-1014390499.jpg

It looks like an L190 i think.

My l190 loves sweetpotatoe, honey melon, carrot and brusslesprout. Has grown from 5cm to 28cm in little more then two years

HOW CAN I FEED THEM SWEETPOTATO, HONEY MELON...ETC? because it is sweet, I can just put them into my tank?
 
Nice pick up. I agree with Tobiassorensen Tobiassorensen that it could be an L190. Another deviation I could suggest would be an L330 from the first photo seeing as it has a fairly spotty underside and doesn’t seem to have white tips on the tail and dorsal fin.

Mine seems to really enjoy spinach, zucchini, and peas as well as what is previously mentioned.

That was my first thought but the other pics throw me of really.
And as for the white on fins only goes for L191. My L190 didnt have white tips when i got it at 4cm
