Click on the picture, and it'll take you to the video.

GT. Been growing him out since about 3/4". Got him from petco to see if a fish from there can turn out nice. This is the first time I've seen him flare. I don't think he likes the camera hahaha.


Dovii. Picked him up from Nick on here. He's in a grow out tank right now, and he'll be going in my 240 later. Eating a ton of massivore and fresh cut tilapia chunks. I don't think he knows what to think of the camera. He seems to be a bit scared of it.
 
Dam he is puting on size fast. I would put darker substrate in the 240 myself........I think his colors would pop a little more. Nice update.
 
Yeah man, he crushes a ton of food. Definitely a pig of a fish. Goes nuts for Tilapia. And he's putting on size fast.

He's actually a bit more blue than that video shows. That camera is a POS. But he's getting more and more colorful every day. Definitely a nice strain you have man. Hopefully he turns out as nice as his dad.

And I agree that I think he's going to look better over some darker substrate. I don't have any substrate for the 240 yet, but I think I'm going to mix PFS with some black sand. That should give a darker substrate, and hopefully he'll darken up a bit more. I just can't stand messing with gravel.....So I've got to find some darker sand option. I love pfs. It's the perfect weight/size, etc...very easy to live with. But it does seem like it makes a lot of fish lighten their colors and fade a bit.
 
You can see a good amount of blue at the one angle and he will only get better. Post a video once he's in the 240!
