ive got a baby rtc that is around 1.5"-2" long and a tsn that is around 2.5"-3"long great fish the tsn has gone yellow/gold coulor but other than that hes fine the rtc is just like any other rtc gready has just ate a chunk of prawn and some ray poop for some reason i think its because the ray is feeding on blood worm and the rtc has eatten some sinking carnivor pellets so they are really good for them better than any live/dead food for them as it says that on the bag but heres some pics ive got them about 10 hour ago heres the tsn:D





and heres the rtc :)

thanks and i will :) i think ill have him around 10" long in 3 months i hope

lol me too so how big is urs now roughly? and in 3 months time (if we remember) we can see if mine and yours has grew the same, no competition or owt like that crap just curiosity and a bit of science see what food makes them grow quicker lol that sort of thing. i have a thread on mine allready so i post my pics/vids there, well here, http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=198652 should be fun to see what diff enviroments, food etc, has to do with their growth. You up for a little science class m8 lol so to speak :ROFL:
 
I've always wanted a little baby RTC...........just wish they stayed a baby RTC longer than a month, lol.

they can if u feed them every 2-3 days :)


Yeah I was thinking that too, just feeding them less often and keeping the temperature down could keep their growth rate in check for awhile, but for how long is the question. ;)

ok hes on lance fish, muscles prawns and all the live fish he can eat, gotta let him hunt at night, i feed him during the day, 1 full lance fish for brecky, muscles for dinner and prawns for tea the rest is upto him, i put plenty of neons and other small fish in there for him and my tsn, my tsn likes to hunt for his food so let him be but my rtc likes to feeed off me during the day and at night he a pure predator. The temp and water quality doesnt really matter atm as he eats enough to get through anything, i would say hes going on for 7" now or not far off, thats just by looking at him mind, lets just get the :popcorn: out and in 3 mnths time we see what the effects are lol should be something like :WHOA::screwy::ROFL: lol
