My Rio parana kel wasn't hard to pellet train either. Took pellets on the 3rd day and is very greedy.

Nice to see someone finally created an official thread. Ours looks very similar with the 4 bars and tail markings. These pics are from day one. I am going to try to snap a recent picture or two tonight.

This bass doesn't sit still if his life depended on it. He's not the biggest fan of me trying to chase him down with my phone. I did manage to get a few good photos. Looking at how this bass is developing makes me want to get another.

Yeah I need to move her, the kel was surprisingly easy to get on massivore. That was one of my worries about getting a wc kel they can be stubborn as hell to get on pellets.

Don't leave your light on 24/7. It will mess with their colors.

It's for the pothos that's why this tank is not that bright the plant is under the lighting. I can turn of at night I didn't know that it could mess with the colors you learn something everyday. I run finnex 24/7 on my 600 it's automatic.
 
Ok so here is the pic as of right now Feb 22 I received the kel Feb 7
