The Official Rio Doce Kelberi Grow Out Thread!!!

[bOOsteN aUdI]

With the new Rio Doce Kelberis that were just available from Jeff Rapps, it is time for a new official grow out thread. I will start this thread off with the group that I picked up for myself. At 2" these guys have a ton of potential and can't wait to grow them out. Let's see who else grabbed a few, don't hold out.

Are you growing them out in your sump? They look nice

Look good. I'm super jealous. I was waiting to order some and some Os this week. They went to quick. Probably still grab Os and get some kels later if available again.

Thank guys.

I am currently growing them out in my sump although my sump is a decent size, about 60 plus gallons. I didn't have much of a choice since they are snack size compared to my other cichla and I had to have them. The Tyrone Biggums in me hahah.

Hopefully he gets some more nice kels in at some point.

I have the doces eating vitamin enhanced freeze dried bloodworms. They readily accepted them pretty much out of the bag. I'm hoping by them eating the freeze dried stuff, it will be easier to transition them over to pellets and other dried foods.
