Update On My Calico/Marbled Convict

[baxtor_lex]

For those who may be interested my marbled convict is coming along nicely it has a nice little bump coming on its head, a week ago it wasnt there. Growing very fast and very interactive with people.

Sorry about the pix, im still getting to grips with my new 14MP camera! Dont worry about the tankmates, there going to my fathers tank once the agrression starts to much atm there evading very well! its 100 gallon for those who dont know

i thought so when the "kok/bump" in the forehead started to show, and he's about 2.5/3 inches already and i doubt id be that rare person with a female with no orange! so im pretty confident he's male, im feeding him up nicely he has a cuboard full of food

I've got an almost 4" male and it seems like every time I look at him he's grown a new black spot. Do you notice anything like that with yours?

not particually i think iv just been so obsessed with sexing it, iv forgot to enjoy the little changes that come with baby fish. what kind of convict do you have then??

Looking good, told you it was a male ;-) you should see my pink male... he's got a nice nuchal hump and fins. Reminds me in some ways of a mini Midas.
