Seriously you'll never regret using NLS, in over 25 years of fish keeping never have I seen such results with a simple pellet. Fry to adult you'll see vastly improved growth rate, color, health & vitality...omg lol, I sound like a commercial, but yeah..good call on using nls.
I'm loving this thread, my sb tex and parrots are quite a different mix than yours, and our goals are a bit different, but it's cool to compare notes. Two of my three female parrots are 50% synspila, one has a bp body type and one has a kk body type. I'd like to use them in my sb tex strain, not to make rt or srt exactly..more so because it'll beef up my strain a LOT.
