These guys grow so fast, it was like yesterday when they were dime size and had no color. I cant write this without tearing up
. My babies are growing up so fast
.
Anyways started with 11 back in September. One died couple days after purchasing, didn't get attacked just died some how. One came with no eye and got chomped right after moving to the 125g. And lost one a couple weeks ago to cannibalism. Which leaves me with 8 Ranging from 3 to 3.5 inches.
They have colored up very nicely in my opinion, which is the only opinion that counts
.
Fed on hikari gold, shrimp, catfish, scallops, tilapia, and for a little while cod (wanted to try some cod and bought a lot, not one of my favorite fish to eat).
Hopefully by this time next year they will turn into my breeding project and not my grow outs.
Here are pics, enjoy. Last pic was one of the only ones I have when I first got them. Don't mind the syno.

and I dont want to spend the time to finish it so it will stay like this for a while. Its just in my room anyways, thinking of moving it to my living room and putting it behind my couch, but that will take so much effort to move
