My husband took me to my favorite fish store for my birthday a couple weeks back. I was so overwhelmed by the variety of fish they had. Each time I go they seem to expand more and more!
This time they had a lot of polys. So many size ranges too. I ended up getting an adorable little Delhezi I named Rex.
He is currently about 4” and in a 65g grow out tank.
(I initially didn’t know they shouldn’t be on gravel so I switched to sand)
He is a great eater and will eat whatever goes in the tank.
Here he is right after I put sand in. It took a couple hours for the water to clear up.
Any tips or things I should know that might not be covered in normal care information?
I see a good number of members feed tilapia. Is this something I should start now while he is little or not till he gets some size to him?
Hes currently getting frozen: bloodworms and brine shrimp. Pellets and tropical flakes. He even picks at the algae wafers I put in for the snail.
How are they with schooling fish? I have four, not yet full grown, giant danios in the tank. Is it possible he can catch them eventually?
