In a previous thread i explained that i'd picked up these guys from a bloke who took a few plecs and bala sharks i was eager to get rid of so i would have room for some monster endli's. he just turned up and said "i've got some of these i've just picked up, think they're red devils but not sure" and i thought why not. well of the original 8, one turned out to be a molly (!!!) and the rest have all grown nicely but with no colour.

biggest about 3 1/2 inches now. when i posted my last pics the general consensus was that they were barred midas but having seen a pic of a baby stotty had the other day i'm thinking they might be red devils after all. anyone able to confirm this for me

here's a vid

they're between 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 inches. the smaller ones have darker bars
 
My devil fry color up at 1- 2" so u must have the barred midas or they ain't devils at all .

You got yourself a Barred Midas, or, a Fkerhorn(lol).....:ROFL:
 
See here's the thing. It's not one, it's 7!

I have a 200g with a channa auranti, a mbu, 2 endli endli's, a congicus, an ornate, 3 senegals, a delhezi, a flagtail, a lima shovelnose, a porthole shovelnose, a bocourti, a geo surinamsis, a gold severum, a green severum, a convict and a salvini!!

That's already a lot of fish and 7 barred midas just won't fit. Anyone fancy one !?
