I have a year-old group of 4. They are already pushing 6-7" in lenght, and despite what many spurces will tell you, I find them to be pretty hardy and easy to maintain species. No different than severums really with the exeption of being complte pussies compared to any anything more aggressive than an angel

i have a group of 5 in my 125 they range from 4" to about 6.5" i love them and you will to. they need lots of veggies and do better in groups so if you have the room you may want to get a couple more. also young ones like yours tend to like warmer temps 84-86 is best.

To bad they have to change color from that beautiful looking fry you have.
