There starting to color up nice and are looking good! Look forward to seeing these guys growup.

Thanks!

Looking good, Forrest. Glad to see that the group are doing so well for you.

Thanks Neil! So far so good

1/27/2013-Dropped the temp


Dropped the temp with the beani down to 70 to give them a bit if a cool off time. Hopefully it'll slow aggression a bit cause the dominant male is a big time bully. I'm gonna keep it this way for 2 weeks then bump it back to 75 and hoping the metabolism decrease then increase will cause a growth spurt. I'm cutting feeding as well with the decreased temps.

Interesting concept. Let us know how it goes. Hope the male tames down a bit.

It does seem to have reduced aggression but only slightly. I'm amazed at the aggression level of these guys.

I keep my beani at temps in the high 60s low 70s all the time. Their first spawn, was at 68'F.

Been a while but time for an update. Down to 3 beani (shipped out 3 yesterday) and moved them to a community growout tank. Am very comfortable in their health an have little worries for issues plus wanted some more activity from them and hopefully from the increased temp (78 degrees) and the competition for food get some increased growth. They're doing fantastic and are very active. Here's some solid pics. Hollywood is now about 4" the other two are about 3.5" and 2.5"
